Siberian atmospheric black metal sensation GRIMA strikes back with second single “Flight of the Silver Storm”, cut from their sixth studio album and Napalm Records debut Nightside, to be released on February 28, 2025 via Napalm Records. “Flight of the Silver Storm” paints a sonic picture of a dark and mystical journey through an icy, eerie landscape engulfed by a merciless snowstorm. The melancholic sound evokes feelings of cold and loneliness and follows a wanderer’s perilous yet alluring escape into the unknown, all underlined by a visually palpable official music video.
After several shows across Europe, including some with fast-rising German death metal force Kanonenfieber, GRIMA are set to honor the spirit of the Siberian Forest, Taiga, once more on Nightside. In addition to their unforgettable sound, the band’s look – towering like living trees with intimidating carved wooden masks and branched fingers – adds another haunting element to their brutal yet beautiful output.
GRIMA about the new single “Flight of the Silver Storm”:
“Flight of the Silver Storm is a sorrowful legend meant to warn those who have lost their fear of nature’s dangers, believing they have unraveled all its mysteries and conquered it to a degree where it does not present danger any longer. The song tells the story of a traveler who boldly sets out to cross an unfamiliar forest under the cover of night, confident that the starry sky will guide his way. Yet, as soon as he descends into the depths of the woods, he falls prey to an unstoppable storm. The silver folds of its flowing gown obscure the map of the night sky from the arrogant fool who only moments before was certain he held his fate in his hands.”
