Swedish heavy metal band GAUNTLET RULE has just dropped a lyric video for "The Night Wind," the second advance single from their upcoming album After the Kill, set to be released on November 12th, 2024 through Fighter Records on CD and digital formats. You can check out the video here:
GAUNTLET RULE was formed in 2019 by guitarist Rogga Johansson (Paganizer, Massacre) and bassist Peter Svensson (Assassin’s Blade, Void Moon) with the goal of crafting timeless heavy metal. The lineup was completed with vocalist Teddy Möller (Loch Vostok). Though a departure from the styles of Johansson’s and Möller’s other projects, GAUNTLET RULE stays rooted in the essence of classic heavy metal, while adding their own original twist.
Their debut album, The Plague Court (2022), laid the groundwork for their sound, and with new members Kjetil Lynghaug on lead guitar and Marcus Rosenkvist on drums, the band is ready to take it even further with After the Kill. Lyrically, the album explores themes of horror, war, inner struggles, and the supernatural—often blending several of these themes into a single song.
The cover art for After the Kill was created by Juan Felipe More Ibáñez, and the album features guest appearances by Jacques Bélanger (Assassin’s Blade/ex-Exciter) on "Bite the Hand That Feeds" and Federica De Boni (White Skull) on the title track "After the Kill".
