Info for Wisdom
Finland's power hard rock ensemble Altaria will release their sixth studio album, Wisdom, on July 8, 2022 via Reaper Entertainment. This will be their first long player in 13 years. Produced by the band and recorded in the band's own studio.
After releasing five very successful studio albums (INVITATION (2003), DIVINITY (2004), THE FALLEN EMPIRE (2006), DIVINE INVITATION (2008), UNHOLY (2009)) the band split up for private reasons.
Unfortunately the pandemic made the band’s plans and the recordings were delayed. But now the time has come and ALTARIA will release their sixth studio album in 2022. “WISDOM” will be released on July 8, 2022 via Reaper Entertainment and contains ten brand new melodic metal anthems, which are in no way inferior to the old classics.
“Due to everything that’s been going on in the world, it took us over two years to finish the album. We are very excited that it now is finally mixed and ready to be released. After a long break, like we’ve had, it’s hard to know what to expect of yourself, but it really feels like all the hard work payed off and we put together a killer album. Can’t wait to get it out there for everyone to hear!
When we started to discuss the artwork, I remembered this illustration an artist friend of mine had made. It was a perfect match for the album and especially the title.”

Altaria
is a Finnish heavy metal band from Jakobstad, who have released four albums on the record label Metal Heaven, a fifth on Escape Music and a sixth on Reaper Entertainment.
In January 2008, the band decided to part ways with their record label Metal Heaven for undisclosed reasons. In the same month, bass player Marko Pukkila parted ways with the band after an argument concerning the split with Metal Heaven, and was replaced as vocalist by Ex-Terrorwheel bass player, Marco Luponero. After that, the only original member still active with Altaria at the time was Tony Smedjebacka.
Towards the later part of 2008 the band announced on their website that they were in the process of writing songs for their fifth (fourth full) studio album. In March 2009, they stated that they had finished recording 12 tracks for their upcoming release. The title had yet to be confirmed, but one track had already been completed, entitled "Pride and Desire". Altaria's fifth studio album, Unholy, was released in May 2009.
After nearly five years of inactivity, the band, together with former bass player Marko Pukkila got together for Altaria's final concert at Nummirock 2016 on 23 June.
In December 2019, the band announced through their new website that the 2006 lineup had returned, and were recording material for a sixth album for a late 2020 release, but as of April 2021 they are still recording vocals. They also remastered their second album, Divinity, which was released on 27 March 2020.
This album contains no booklet.
