    Description

    The history of Oskord begins in the ruins of successful Ukrainian band Holy Blood. As part of Holy Blood, the members of Oskord worked together for 5 years, during which they recorded 4 albums and performed around Europe. After all the members of Holy Blood except frontman Fedor left the band in 2008, guitarist Sergey Nagorny, bassist Alex Andrushchenko and drummer Dmitry Titorenko, full of energy and creativity and not wanting to give up music, decided to continue working together. They immediately recruited Andrey Yakovenko who had begun playing flute and bouzouki at the last few Holy Blood concerts.

    Gathering together for their first rehearsal on August 11 2.08, Oskord was born. By spring 2009 they had begun recording their debut album, recruiting vocalist Grigory Nazarov, familiar for his work in Coram Deo, in September 2009. In October 2010 they completed work on their debut album “Weapon of Hope”.

    “Weapon of Hope” is a combination of modern metal and folk that incorporates ethnic instruments like the flute, tin and low whistles and bouzouki. Their sound will appeal to fans of Eluveitie and Holy Blood.
