'Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before.' - Edgar Allen Poe, The Raven\nHave you ever stood under a railway bridge when a train is rumbling above you? Four hundred tons of steel drifting over your head. Life is brief and it's not what we take away from it that counts...it's not what we can suck from this organic mass in which we dwell...it's about what you can leave behind...How you can leave your mark for all of the Voyagers that will follow you.\nAll across the world, there are Voyagers. And they all stand under their own railway bridge. Some have already established their journey and don't listen to the sounds of the rumbling trains. Others wrap themselves in the layers of falsehood in a vain attempt to exclude the noise.\nAnd the fear.\nShadow Flag create soundscapes that primarily draw influence from black metal while allowing hints of thrash, doom and blackened metal to creep into their music. Incorporating poetry and spoken word, they mould their creations into more than simply music. The riffs are wound around tales and ideas as the words scream and growl like guitars. For it is words that we all have at the beginning and we will all have at the end....it is words that will stand forever. In 2013, they released their self-titled debut - featuring a 5000 word poem that is the tale of the Voyager and his quest for salvation. Following a favourable reception, they embarked on a UK tour and gained a loyal fanbase along the way. The intriguing effect of combining poetry with the darkness of the songs within was something that had not been tried before. And it worked.\nOne of their long-term goals is to play their debut album in entirety in the Tate Modern 'Turbine Hall' In London, UK. And any other interesting spaces dotted accross the globe.\nIn 2015, they are set to release their second album entitled 'The White Grave'. Inspired by the folklore and imagination-stories of the world's abandoned street children, this album offers heaviness in abundance yet still combines it with the hanging intensity of the spoken word. The White Grave will be released in the summer of 2015\nCONCERNING THE EMERGENCE OF SHADOW FLAG....\nDistant paths that led to broken doors. Doors that opened into one room.\nIt is here that we converged. We had taken different journeys, but their underlying truths were alike. A passion for music, words and creativity bound us together, and it was from this unity that Shadow Flag was born.\n'Shadow Flag is a creative union that encompasses all of our passions - music, art and words. We live for the idea. We live for the freedom. We exist for Shadow Flag. Until the end. Voyagers....Unite....We are with you forever.'
