Shadowblade is a progressive heavy metal band based out of Edmonton, Canada -- where the winters are long, the beer is strong, the girls are pretty, and some of the most beautiful mountain ranges in North America stand triumphantly but a few hours away. Without a doubt a prime location for the inspiration of beautiful and somber atmospheres alike, strengthened by lyrical content comprised of imagery of nature's overwhelming power, figurative existentialism, as well as heroic anthem-like sing alongs typical of folk influenced heavy metal.

Formed in 2006 by founding member Jan (a.k.a Jasio) Kulakowski, Shadowblade has undergone several member changes improving and redefining their sound along the way. Enough demos were recorded to bring them to the stage countless times in the city of Edmonton, and around the province of Alberta to secure a fantastic local network of friends and fans.

Shadowblade just independently released their debut full length album "Frozen Serenity". Composed and arranged by Jan, the album is a collection of 2 years of songwriting and life lessons learned along the way. The album has been mixed by Nino Laurenne at his own Sonic Pump Studios and mastered by Svante Forsbäck at Chartmakers Mastering to bring you a thunder-heavy sound put together by true pioneers in the heavy metal production business.
We are seeking label support for the promotion and distribution of the record, but rest assured this album will be created with or without the help of a record label.
