GODDESS OF FATE (Indonesia) – set to release their single “The Orchard Gardener” on October 26, 2019 #goddessoffate

Goddess of Fate is a prog/melodic death metal band from Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Formed in 2009 as a tech death band, they released their first EP, A Reversal of Civilization, in 2012.

It was met with critical acclaim by Indonesian press because of its freshness and innovative music, combining complicated and brutal aspect from the likes of Necrophagist and Spawn of Possession with beautiful and adventurous arrangement in the vein of Nobuo Uematsu and Yoko Shimamura. In 2018  they released their first LP, Spiral Orchard Pt. 1.

Now in 2019, they are ready to release “The Orchid Gardener.”  This single is 50% progressive metal and 50% “everything else,” taking ideas from Between The Buried and Me, Devin Townsend, and early Dream Theater. Melodic death metal blast beats, subtly backed by prog metal guitar riffs, give way to soothing clean vocals that then transitions into tech death shredding and brutal screaming.  This evolves into some acoustic guitars, some bluesy solos, highlighted by a tight rhythm section over the span of about seven minutes. The result is music that is challenging and technical, but more catchy and lovable than anything else.

Goddess of Fate are also excited to announce that they are touring Asia this year.   The first leg of Spiral Road Tour 2019 was already done in July; then in November, the band is going to visit Japan, Singapore and Malaysia.

“The Orchid Gardener” will be released on major digital music services (Spotify, Apple Music, etc.) and also on Bandcamp on OCTOBER 26th 2018.
