Taken from the album “False Light“, out on June 17th 2022.
“Phoenix,“ is devoted to the actual tragic events that took place in Ukraine a few years ago.
This song tells the story of Kateryna Handziuk, a Ukrainian activist involved in the investigation of the purposeful mass forest fires in the Kherson region that were sanctioned by local officials with ties to organized crime.
2018 saw the acid attack and subsequent hospital death of Kateryna.

The ever-inventive Ukrainian Black Metal band WHITE WARD unleash their defining third full-length “False Light“, a grand work of exploratory depth and a remarkable expansion upon all that made 2019’s acclaimed “Love Exchange Failure“ such a triumph.
Always surprising and never less than captivating, from a base of rhythmically creative, furiously melodic Black and Death Metal the band shape-shift through a vivid suite of songs-as-journeys: seamlessly utilising hues of brass-led darkjazz and stately post-rock, foregrounding the evocative contributions of guesting clean vocalists in passages redolent of gothic Americana/post-punk and integrating virtuosic guitar leads, textural electronics and atmospheric sample-work.
Heavily conceptual and rich with meaning, the 8 dystopian tracks use overarching inspiration from “Intermezzo“, a 1908 impressionistic novel by the Ukrainian author Mykhailo Kotsubinsky - in addition to works by Beat-writer Jack Kerouac and psychoanalyst Carl Jung – to explore government-sanctioned murders, imminent environmental catastrophes, police brutality, domestic abuse, the psychic emptiness of cities, falsity of modern mainstream culture and ill-effects of overconsumption.
“False Light“ is a multi-layered success story – perfectly balancing tension and traction, restraint and resurgence, fatalism and focus into an indispensable record from a stunning band at the top of their game.
