Virginia-based heavy rock band Valkyrie recently signed a deal with Meteor City Records (The Obsessed; Nebula, Unida). Meteor City will
reissue both Valkyrie's self-titled debut album and their second album,
Man of Two Visions. Release dates are set for July 5 (Europe) and July
6 (North America.).
Founded in 2002 in Lexington, Virginia by brothers Jake and Pete Adams
(also of BARONESS), Valkyrie's twin harmonized guitar leads and clean
dual vocals display a "musical telepathy" that only brothers can
achieve. With a strong nod to classic doom and traditional heavy metal,
Valkyrie's "genre transcending" sound also pays homage to classic heavy
rock bands like DEEP PURPLE and THIN LIZZY while bringing to mind the
pastoral and organic sounds of WISHBONE ASH and JETHRO TULL. With no
regard to image, or retro-rock posturing, Valkyrie's true, classic
heavy metal assault continues to turn many heads with its impressive
live shows and soul-stirring conviction.
