SPARANZA Return with New Album “From Dust To Darkness”, Out October 3rd

“From dust to darkness” is the new album from Sparzanza – all draped in the bands signature blend of crushing riffs, haunting melodies and choruses that will punch you in the face.

Lead vocalist Fredrik Weileby on Sparzanza’s new album:
– The sound has evolved – it’s heavier now, with a more brutal touch of metal. On “From dust to darkness” we’ve been experimenting quite a bit – really pushing the boundaries. Guitarist Calle Johannesson has written tons of riffs, bringing in time signatures that have both challenged and inspired us. It´s sounds really great and we are thrilled to be back on track for this album.

Bass player Johan Carlsson explains the course of “From dust to darkness”
– There’s a bit of a crowd-pleaser in “Bad Motherfucker,” which we released 2024, while “Twitch of the Death Nerve” stands out as something truly different for us. We needed to get ourselves out of the comfort zone to be able to create something really crushing. I’m sure that “From dust to darkness” will please our fans.

Sparzanza have always delivered the goods in the darker side of metal – “From dust to darkness” is no exception. Both sound and lyrics are on the deeper and darker end of the spectre of metal.

– There’s more growling, a darker tone, and greater variety, says Fredrik Weileby. “The Great Noise” is a track that features every kind of vocal style – from raw and aggressive to delicate and fragile – as it should be since we make songs about witch-burnings and being born in blood. Creating this album has been a fun and creative challenge as a singer.

“From dust to darkness” is Sparzanza’s ninth album and was produced by guitarist, Magnus Eronen, who has captured what defines Sparzanza’s music.

The album will be available on vinyl, cd and on all major streaming platforms, including Spotify, Apple Music, and Amazon Music. Fans can also watch the official music videos on YouTube.
