Laurenne/Louhimo, the new project featuring Netta Laurenne (Smackbound) and Noora Louhimo (Battle Beast) have announced their debut album, The Reckoning, will be released on July 9th via Frontiers Music Srl. To celebrate the album announcement, the duo has shared a music video for the first single “Bitch Fire,” featuring a guest guitar solo by Samy Elbanna (Lost Society).
Laurenne comments:
“With this album, I wanted to capture the essence of classic heavy metal and hard rock and combine it with great melodies and lyrics that have value. It was clear from the beginning, having two strong voices on the album, that this album was going to be full of power, energy, attitude and emotion. I envisioned it lovingly kicking everyone’s ass, my own included, and I think it does just that. It’s pushing us to do better and evolve, yet having great empathy towards the struggles we all face as humans.”
Louhimo adds:
”My inspiration was definitely the thought of empowering and the songs giving a feeling of strength and sensitivity. And us interpreting the songs from our hearts and souls with full force, leaving no question about how passionate we are as vocalists and artists.”
Frontiers President/Head of A&R Serafino Perugino states:
“I believe Netta is a truly gifted and talented artist and this is one of a few records besides Smackbound that we will start a fruitful creative and artistic cooperation with her on. To pair her with Noora [Louhimo], who literally blows everyone away with her smashing vocals in not only her main band Battle Beast, but also on Magnus Karlsson’s Free Fall and Heart Healer records, is incredibly exciting and an honor.”
