Forsaken Rite, the symphonic folk metal warriors from the northern plains of Edmonton, Canada, are thrilled to announce the release of their latest music video âCall to Warâ This powerful and visually stunning video is the second single from their upcoming EP âThe Forgotten Westâ, out this coming September 2024. âCall to Warâ showcases Forsaken Riteâs signature blend of epic storytelling, intricate musicianship, and high-energy performance, as they explain:
ââCall to Warâ is the finale of The Forgotten West journey. The war party has made it to their destination⦠for now. They have found villages and life isnât so bad, itâs different than before, but yet⦠oh so familiar. But as if destiny had other plans, peace lasts only so long before history begins to repeat itself as new enemy forces move in to take what little the village has left. Call to War is a battle speech and a rallying cry, because this time, we all stay to fight, unlike so long ago, before the journey of The Forgotten West.â
The drums of war are sounding and Forsaken Riteâs final rally cry leads warriors into battle. âCall to Warâ is a heavy war song led by the power of unclean vocals as clean vocals build the narrative. The songâs bridge is a grand battle speech and a march towards victory climaxing in a multi-layered instrumental and vocal breakdown to round out the EP.
Forged in the cold northern plains of Edmonton, AB, Forsaken Rite has been crafting tales of ancient lore and heroic feats since their formation in 2012. Drawing inspiration from their northern ancestry and the wild landscapes of Canada, the band has built a reputation for delivering electrifying live performances and transporting their audience into fantastical realms. They are recommended for fans of Eluveitie, Nightwish, and Faun.

“âThe Northern Sagaâ is definitely worth checking out as it has some solid songs, strong performances and catchy tracks. Another epic album from north of the border.” – Folk-Metal.nl (2017)
â…The conquest based on riffs warriors and vindictive is launched, no prisoners and drink in the skull of our enemies tonight! But FORSAKEN RITE is not just a fight, itâs also a real passion for Scandinavian shamanic atmospheres that are inserted in small touches along the tracks…â (Translated from French) â kaosguards.com (2017)
