Biography

WHITE WARD, from Odesa, Ukraine performs intensely deviant metal music of a noir shade. Formed in 2012 and taking root in raw depressive Black Metal, the band rapidly shed all boundaries, taking inspiration from an array of dark atmospheres including the writings of H.P. Lovecraft and I.M. Banks. Exploring themes of borderline death states, aberrant afterlife worlds, and strange mental disorders, the WHITE WARD sound adapts the expansiveness of instrumental jazz and the depths of existential despair. After recording their first full-length album, "Futility Report", and being signed to Debemur Morti Productions, WHITE WARD is primed to embark much further on their divergent sonic journey. The band continues to evolve and change directions with their second release, "Love Exchange Failure". Dark-jazz aesthetics appear more vibrant and deeper than ever before, while elements of blackened death, prog, and black metal scream out in an intense fury over vicious blast beats, courtesy of new drummer Noctum! Lyrical themes explore new dimensions, diving into the abyss of human psyche instead of creating Lovecraft-inspired worlds. In June 2022, the Ukrainian Black Metal innovators are prepared to unleash their third album, "False Light", incorporating and intertwining various influences into a potent and dystopian mix. "False Light" is an indispensable record from a stunning band at the top of their game.
