Helsinki, Finland's WOLAND will release its new studio album, "Hyperion", on February 24 (February 17 in Norway and February 21 in Germany/Austria) via Indie Recordings. A teaser for the album can be seen below. WOLAND's music relies on a foundation without boundaries and a focused vision. When others crawl in the mud and idolize the past, the band gazes to the future with a Nietzschean vision and welcome it with opened arms. The core idea is to rise above one self and become one with divinity, to be everything you can be. While the music and lyrics are not tied to any specific events or follow any single dogma, they are heavily influenced by some of the modern worlds most prominent philosophers and writers as well as inspired by mythology with its gods and heroes. Founded in the year 2010, WOLAND released a double single called "Conquer All & Live Forever" in February 2011 for the international event Finnish Metal Expo. While the songs have been freely streamable online, WOLAND concentrated on writing the full-length album "Hyperion", which is since completed and features elements from flamenco guitar to jazz piano, resulting in a unique and modern outcome. The album also features additional vocal performances from artists like Geir Bratland (DIMMU BORGIR), Mathias "Vreth" Lillmåns (FINNTROLL) and Janica Lönn (BLACK SUN AEON). "Hyperion" track listing: 01. Conquer All 02. Art Of Ascension 03. Living Water 04. None 05. Extacy And Rapture 06. Honey In The Lion 07. Live Forever 08. Elevated Existence
