Immortal Souls is a Christian melodic death metal band from Kokkola, Finland, formed in 1991. For years they were quite unknown because their first label Little Rose did not have enough resources to promote Immortal Souls properly. It was not until 2002 that Immortal Souls begun achieving world wide attention with the help of Dutch label Fear Dark which released their second album.

After several years of touring in Central Europe they created a solid fanbase that made it possible for them to play bigger festivals such as Tuska Open Air Metal Festival. Their musical style is characterized by their use of melodic guitar riffs and singing which shifts between growls and shouting. Their music has been called winter metal since Immortal Souls utilizes frosty metaphors in their lyrics and usually creates a cold, wintry atmosphere. Their new album Wintereich was released in Europe on June 1, 2007 through Dark Balance and in the USA on August 21, 2007 through Facedown Records.
