CASTLE was forged in San Francisco
in 2009 and released their debut full-length, In Witch Order, on Germany’s Ván
Records in 2011. The album brought light to the newly-formed band and earned
them “Album Of The Year” honors from Metal Hammer Norway. Shortly thereafter, the
band joined the Prosthetic Records roster in North America
and released both their critically-acclaimed sophomore album Blacklands, which
led to a Canadian JUNO nomination for “Metal/Hard Music Album Of The Year”, and
2014’s influential follow-up, Under Siege.
Since the release of their first album, CASTLE, which
consists of vocalist/bassist Elizabeth Blackwell, guitarist/vocalist Mat Davis
and various touring and recording drummers, have maintained a relentless tour
schedule, performing over six-hundred shows worldwide alongside the likes of
The Sword, Conan, Intronaut, and Pentagram among many others as well as
appearances at some of the underground’s largest fests including Roadburn, and
the London and Berlin Desertfests and the band's first ever tour of Japan last
year.
