Description

Entitled ‘We Are The Void’, the band’s ninth album picks up where its predecessor left and guarantees melodic death metal hits from start to finish that find an irresistible balance between untamed rage, progressive-tinged parts, captivating choruses and thought-provoking lyrics. Never afraid of taking chances and experimenting with refreshing new elements, the sextet succeeds to surprise the listener once again! Just take e.g. the black metal vibe on songs like the devastating opener ‘Shadow In Our Blood’ or the almost apocalyptic ‘Arkhangelsk’, the furious Teutonic thrash references in ‘I Am The Void’ or the gloomy gothic-touch of the epic closing track ‘Iridium’. Songs like ‘Dream Oblivion’, ‘The Fatalist’ and the melancholic ‘Her Silent Language’ are prime examples for the band’s extraordinary sense to combine stellar musicianship with powerful hooks and catchy melodies. Dark Tranquillity have mastered the art of melodic death over the last two decades and ‘We Are Void’ is another undeniable proof for that. Recorded in the homelike atmosphere of the band’s own Rogue Music studio, ‘We Are The Void’ was created in a relaxed and comfortable setting and according to the old ‘never change a winning team’ formula once again mixed and mastered by Tue Madsen at Antfarm Studio, Denmark.
