Mikael Stanne of DARK TRANQUILLITY will guest on THE MOOR upcoming album, the singer also shared a pic on his Instagram profile showing him together producer Fredrik Nordström (In Flames, Architects, Opeth, Sabaton, Powerwolf…) at Studio Fredman.
The Moor’s new album, which release date is still unknown, will features the new single “Lead the Difference”, on the band’s official Youtube channel.
Watch “Lead the Difference” here:
“One of Italy’s most original and intelligent up and coming metal acts; THE MOOR is a band not afraid to incorporate music from any rock idiom to give the listener an original listening experience…”
The album is self-released by the band and contains following songs:
Elenu Tiamatu
Nuremberg 1561
Devourer of Dreams
The Hissing Sound of Ouroboros
Daughters of the Sun
The Lotus Scimitar
At the Feet of Ereshkigal
All the seven tracks, in their own way, represent some part of the inspirational dark philosophy and mystic phenomena that continues to challenge mankinds’ perception of reality. “Al Chem” was recorded at Top Floor Studios under the very talented Jakob Herrmann. It was mixed by the well known Roberto Laghi and mastered at Bohus Sound Recording by the legend Dragan Tanaskovic. Check out the single “At the feet of Ereshkigal” via spotify, here:
Formed in 2006, Gothenburg’s atmospheric Death/Black Metallers NOX VORAGO‘s goal has always been, and always will be to create something inspired by the entire width of the metal scene, thus incorporating the elements they like into their music and creating a well-written chaos without confines.
Legendary Gothenburg melodic death metal pioneers, DARK TRANQUILLITY, will release a 7inch single featuring the two tracks “The Absolute” and “Time Out Of Place”, which have so far only been released as bonus tracks of the Ltd. Edition CD version of their latest album “Atoma”. These songs are the most experimental and daring tracks ever from the D.T. camp, featuring a very different approach than their usual brand of melodic death metal.
You can listen to a medley of both songs here:
The “The Absolute” 7inch will be released on March 24th, 2017 and is now available for pre-order in the following vinyl colors and limitations:
Black – limited to 500 copies
Red – limited to 100 copies, exclusively available at CMDistro EU
White – limited to 200 copies
Blue – limited to 200 copies, only available at the merch stand on the band’s upcoming European tour
