Arctic Blast by Global Metal Apocalypse

When the nights turn dark earlier and the cold seeps into your blood like induced-alcohol, the 'Arctic Blast' begins to set in.

This 33-track compilation featuring bands from the entire Nordic region, becomes the third installment in our themed series; outside of the main global releases.

With 5 bands from 6 countries and the other 3 representing Greenland, Estonia and the Åland Islands, this compilation pays homage to the frozen north.

Join us as we start in Iceland, cross the Atlantic Ocean to the Faroe Islands unto Denmark, where we backtrack to Greenland, shoot forward to the Åland Islands, then Estonia before swinging northwards into Finland, before finally entering Sweden and stopping in Norway.

Once again we are supporting the Animal Health Trust with this release, so any donations are most welcome as they're going to a good cause.
