CASTLE formed in 2009 and released their debut album 'In Witch Order' on the German label Van Records (The Devil's Blood) in 2011. The album brought light to the newly-formed band and earned them 'Album of the Year' honors from Metal Hammer Norway, as well as Roadburn Festival's 'Newcomer of the Year.' Shortly after, the band signed with Prosthetic in North America and released their critically acclaimed sophomore album 'Blacklands,' which earned a nomination for 'metal/hard music album of the year' at the Juno Awards (Canada's equivalent to the Grammys). The band supported the release playing over 200 shows worldwide alongside acts including The Sword, Intronaut and Witch Mountain in addition to appearing at some of the scene's largest festivals (Roadburn, London Desertfest).
