OVERVIEW
With power and precision, THRONE OF THORNS, a new Belgian metal band, masterfully forges harmonious melodies and dynamic vocals over a solid foundation of captivating guitar riffs. Founded by guitarist and songwriter Thomas Jethro Verleye, the band has assembled a talented lineup of musicians, including Josey Hindrix (vocals), Wim Rotthier (keyboard), Guy Vercruysse (backing vocals, production, mixing), and Baruch Van Bellegem (drums), all of whom have solid track records in bands such as Ostrogoth, Reject the Sickness and Guilty as Charged.

The mastering of the album was entrusted to Jacob Hansen, an internationally acclaimed Danish producer known for his unwavering commitment to sonic perfection.
