Skillful forged, knightly blessed
Moving from the frigid land of Cleveland, Ohio to humid Florida vocalist/guitarist Deryck Heignum brought an unconquerable passion for CLASSIC HEAVY METAL.
He teamed up with master of the bass and studio engineer Stan Martell along with expert drummer Austin Lane and the three recorded 2015’s "A Dark Formation" under the band name Stormlurker.
The release by Stormlurker was critically acclaimed with its combination of Thrash and traditional Metal. Unfortunately, due to being under funded it never made its mark on the Metal scene the way it should of though a sonic representation is to be found here.
The three Metal maniacs got together again in 2017 under the name DUNGEON WOLF in order to record a more melodic and much more traditional album entitled "Slavery Or Steel".
German label Iron Shield Records signed DUNGEON WOLF in early March. May these legendary album gets the exposure it deserves!
Official release date of "Slavery Or Steel" is September 7th.
