We’ve been waiting for what feels like forever but is more like 2 years for EMBER FALLS to grace us with an album, and the day finally came! On February 27th, 2017, “Welcome to Ember Falls“ was released via Spinefarm Records to our great approval. Naturally, when the album release show was announced, we were first in line.

The show took place in the band’s hometown of Tampere, at popular local heavy bar/venue Jack the Rooster. If I was to describe the atmosphere in one word, that word would be BUSY! Everyone was running around, finishing up last-minute preparations. We were lucky to sneak an interview in with a few of the band members and their guest vocalist/producer, Jake E, which you can check out over here, and the rest of these photos are of the guys getting ready for the show and preparing their make-up. Enjoy!
