In a combination of the strong metal sounds of NuMetal, pop elements and modern sound elements, the five musicians give their eighth album "Voodoo" a powerful, cool and danceable charm - which can keep up with any modern top chart production.

Harpyie - the continuously up-and-coming folk metal band from East Westphalia has played its way into the hearts of the German metal community with its authenticity and consistently individual approach. Whether at the Wacken Open Air or the Summerbreeze, the five rebels from Bad Oeynhausen have thrilled the young and genre-breaking target group as well as the traditional metal fans. With their last album, they also made it into the top ranks of the German album charts with a fabulous 34th place - and proved it: Folk metal from Germany is just as suitable for the mainstream.

The first single "Ikonoklast" is a rebellious anthem for individualism and humanity with a convincingly modern and much fresher look than before: Harpyie have cast off their medieval shackles and are entering a new era in their band's history. In a combination of strong metal sounds of NuMetal, pop elements and modern sound elements, the five musicians give "Voodoo" a powerful, cool and danceable charm - which can keep up with any modern top chart production.

After 8 albums and 12 years of band history, Harpyie - in keeping with their band name - are tearing down genre boundaries and reinventing themselves without betraying themselves and their own style. The East Westphalians use their newfound freedom to address topics that are close to their hearts - be it autobiographical intimacy, socio-critical indictment or cheeky self-expression. Anyone who rediscovers folk rock as a teenager today will automatically find and discover Harpyie for themselves. And this not only puts them right in the middle of the current zeitgeist, but also makes them more authentic than ever before.
