Having won their nation’s Wacken Metal Battle this year, Canada’s Strigampire are rounding off 2023 with the release of “Sold Our Soul.” This is the second single off their third album All To Dominate, produced by Christian Donaldson (Cryptopsy), due out December 15th. Find the “Sold Our Soul” video and more beneath.

Vocalist Steve DC shares his thoughts on the single:
“It talks about our passion for heavy metal music. I explain that we dedicate our lives to music, even if it means making sacrifices. I reference the idea of selling our soul to the devil for the love of heavy and rock music! I elaborate that, in my opinion, it’s important to sometimes stop fixating on the horizon and thinking about the destination, and instead take the time to appreciate the wonders that surround us in this wild adventure along the path of life.”
Musically, “Sold Our Soul” is a true heavy metal anthem, the atmosphere surrounding it is electrifying and incredibly badass. However, at times, it delves into a more mystical and less in-your-face ambiance, with a guitar melody that gradually evolves to culminate in an epic solo, emblematic of the rock & roll spirit. This song embodies a remarkable fusion of rock’s fervour and the extravagance of metal.
The high-energy elements seamlessly blend with introspective moments, creating a striking balance. In essence, “Sold Our Soul” is a true reflection of Strigampire’s identity as an extreme rock band, and celebrates the roots of heavy metal while capturing the raw energy and melodic finesse that characterize their music. It is recommended for fans of Children Of Bodom, Guns ‘n Roses, and At The Gates.
