Lycanthro is an enigmatic power metal band hailing from Ottawa, Canada. Their unique fusion of power, thrash, and traditional metal delivers an epic soundscape that’s as bold as it is unforgettable. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Savatage, W.A.S.P., Blind Guardian and more, Lycanthro proudly hunts in the world of true metal. Calling out to the realms of classic horror, pop culture, and mythology, their music is a journey through the imagination via tales of personal struggle and howling victory.
"I'm excited to work with another strong band from North America, this time Canada's own Lycanthro!" says label owner Christopher Morris. "Lycanthro has the songwriting, chops, and drive to really make an impact in the world of power metal. They are hungry and dedicated and I couldn't ask for more." Frontman James Delbridge comments: "We are ecstatic to now be apart of the growing Psychomanteum Records roster alongside some powerhouses in the genre! It has been a joy working with Chris and we can't wait to see what the future holds!"
After an early demo and EP, their critically acclaimed full-length album, Mark of the Wolf (2021), showcased powerful storytelling, dynamic arrangements, and even collaborations with a chamber choir. Lycanthro has hunted on stages such as Power Metal Quest Fest in the UK, Legions of Metal in Chicago, and is fast inviting a worldwide audience to join the pack.
Now, upon joining US-based metal label Psychomanteum Records, the wolven-metal outlanders are hard at work crafting their highly anticipated second album for release in 2025. With every note, Lycanthro proves that the howl never dies, the hunt never ends, and the night is never quiet.
