Helle Bogdanova - the soloist of the band Ignea - visited our channel, where we talked about the new album, culture and the professional music scene.
@IgneaBand is melodic death metal, where sensitive vocals intersect with energetic growl and all this with the most thought-out concept, interesting stories and feelings conveyed by the band. For more than 10 years, Hel Bogdanova has been the soloist of a band already with a world name and shared with us her experiences about the war, about the new release of the concept album and about the professional scene, its problems that the listener does not see. We also talked about such important things as eradicating Russian content from the minds of Ukrainians, about freedom, and Hel told us more about her listeners abroad. Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, the band has supported Ukraine and our army, and informed its audience about the crimes of the Russians.
