ARCTIC DREAMS Unleashes Debut Album "And the Agony Has Started"

ARCTIC DREAMS, the mysterious band from St. Petersburg, is glad to present the audience with the long-awaited first album called “And the Agony Has Started. ” The band’s music can be classified as metal with electronic gothic and industrial tendencies that will fascinate listeners and defy expectations. 

ARCTIC DREAMS was created in 2009 with a vision to be different from the rest of the heavy music bands; the band members include Aleksandr “Alex_Y” Järvinen (vocals/guitars/music/lyric), Igor “Sydius” Pokatilov (back-vocal/guitars), and Sergey “Glam_Dickens” Dik. Taking ideas from Metallica, Cradle of Filth, Hocico, the band tried themselves in everything, mixing the favorite metal with electronic, gothic and industrial with the addition of classical composers like Vivaldi, Beethoven and Mozart. 

Finally, after years of hard work and preparation, ARCTIC DREAMS got into the studio to record the first demo, the aggressive metal with electronic influences which can be compared to the bands like Deathstars, Dope Stars Inc, The CNK. While their activity was temporarily put on hold, the band members kept on writing songs and polishing their material, which would eventually form the basis of the band’s concept that would be expressed in “And the Agony Has Started. 

The recording of the debut album started in 2014 and the band encountered a lot of problems during the process. Unfazed, they continued, and eventually set up their own recording studio, the Arctic Sonic Wave Recording Studio, to fine tune their music. Now, after a lot of struggling, ARCTIC DREAMS offers people to join their world with the new song “And the Agony Has Started.
