Pentakill is a music/gaming crossover virtual heavy metal group that originated within the massive, 100 million-player-strong League of Legends international gaming community (based on a line of skins – essentially custom/interchangeable costumes: outfits, animations, voices etc for an existing character – available in the game). The band is backed by a rotating cast of some of today’s biggest and most respected world-class heavy metal and rock musicians, in addition to the stellar music composition and production team at League of Legends’ parent company, Riot Games.
Upon its release in 2014 and with absolutely no traditional promotion – the band’s first release, Smite & Ignite, went on to debut Top 40 on Billboard and #1 on the iTunes Metal and Rock charts, plus charted top 30 on the overall iTunes charts, in addition to millions of YouTube and Spotify streams.
Three years after the release of Smite & Ignite, Pentakill is gearing up to release their second album, Pentakill II: Grasp Of The Undying. Grasp Of The Undying is a full length, 10-track scorcher of a record – showcasing the multi-faceted talents of the genuine music professionals and avid production team involved, and featuring genre-influences ranging from power metal, NWOBHM, thrash, modern progressive death metal and everything in between – even electronic/industrial.
There’s something for every heavy music fan on Grasp Of The Undying – an album that is not only accessible, but will stand up next to any heavy metal artist on your playlists. The new album features the talents of artists such as Noora Louhimo (Battle Beast), Mike Pitman and Rich Thomson (Xerath), Per Johansson (Ureas), Tommy Lee (Motley Crüe) and many more, plus the return of Danny Lohner (Nine Inch Nails) and Jorn Lande. Grasp Of The Undying hit all major digital platforms on August 4, 2017
