DAWN OF DISEASE on the new single / video: “With “Where The Clouds Reach The Ground” we would like to introduce you to the epic and melancholic side of our forthcoming album Procession of Ghosts. This song carries a lot of emotional energy and will surely affect you from the very first second. Inspired by the gloominess of autumn and winter “Where The Clouds Reach The Ground” is the right companion for the current season. Supported by an obscure and atmospheric video, which was shot and directed by Tuomas Saukkonen (Wolfheart, Dawn of Solace), the track shows us in a metaphoric way the hidden sides of ourselves. Join us on our journey through the dark to the place where the clouds reach the ground!”
DAWN OF DISEASE return with their smashing new album, Procession of Ghosts, coming out on November 1st via Napalm Records – a phenomenal new melodic death metal album with more than enough energy to stand out from the masses. Accompanied by a sinister artwork by Michał “Xaay” Loranc, who has worked with bands like Behemoth, Nile, and Evocation, the album possesses significantly more atmosphere and catchy melodies without sacrificing the band’s extreme spirit. Mixed and mastered by Jens Bogren and Linus Corneliusson at Fascination Street Studios (Amon Amarth, Kreator, Arch Enemy), Procession of Ghosts secures DAWN OF DISEASE‘s status at the forefront of German death metal bands and even beyond. Melancholy meets relentless brutality, while hymnal passages, dark growls, fast riffs and catchy hook lines create a perfect sonic landscape.
DAWN OF DISEASE says about the new album:
“Procession of Ghosts is our fifth full-length album, in which we again invested a lot of time, energy and emotions. But not only that: we’ve taken new paths on different levels. Starting with the great artwork of Michał “Xaay“ Loranc, to a more intense use of atmosphere in our songs, up to the collaboration with Jens Bogren and Linus Corneliusson from Fascination Street Studios for the refinement of the production. We can hardly wait for the release of the album and are already looking forward to presenting you the songs during our tour with Månegarm and Einherjer!”
To make the wait for ProcessionofGhosts even sweeter, DAWN OF DISEASE have released the new single, “Procession of Ghosts”, along with a new gorgeous official video that will take you even deeper into the song. Find it below!

Since 2016 the German Death Metal Institution DAWN OF DISEASE has been a part of the Napalm Records family, releasing two very strong albums in this relatively short period: “Worship The Grave” and “Ascension Gate” (which reached # 46 in the official German charts. Through numerous shows supporting the likes AMON AMARTH, BEHEMOTH, ARCH ENEMY, POWERWOLF, SODOM and AT THE GATES as well as appearances at festivals including Wacken Open Air, Rock Hard Festival, Party.San Open Air, Metal Hammer Paradise, Rockharz Festival, Metal On The Hill and Summer Breeze Open Air, Dawn of Disease has gained attention far beyond the borders of their home country. Now the band has signed a new contract, which will strengthen the existing partnership and guarantee further great releases.
The Band comments as follows: “We are very happy to have Napalm Records as a strong and reliable partner at our side in the coming years, supporting us in every way possible. Since the release of ‘Worsphip The Grave’, which in 2016 was a new and important step in the history of DAWN OF DISEASE after a four-year release break, we have grown more and more together with Napalm Records. With the signing of a new contract we can already look forward to a future that will give all of you Death Metal maniacs out there more wrecking balls with a melodic taste!”
Napalm Records adds: “Dawn Of Disease is the Death Metal flagship! We are very glad to have re-signed the contract! Be sure there’s a lot to come in the near future!”
DAWN OF DISEASE are currently writing songs for their next album, which will be released next year on Napalm Records.
A hurricane of blastbeat drums, fiercest riffs and modern interpretations of some Swedish oldschool grooves: DAWN OF DISEASE have rumbled their way to the top as the heavy weights of Germany’s Death Metal scene and have set the release of their brand new album ‘Ascension Gate‘ on August 11st via Napalm Records!
After the band just unleashed a first appetizer with the track ‘Perimortal‘ [ check it out HERE! ], DAWN OF DISEASE are now premiering a brand new video for the song ‘Akephalos‘ – watch and dive into their heavy sound right below:
Says vocalist Tomasz Wisniewski:
„‘Akephalos’ unleashes pure energy and takes no prisoners. It represents the more brutal side of our new album without disregarding some catchy melodies. The vocals go beyond the limit while the drums oscillate between insane bludgeoning and catchy grooves. The melodic guitar part at the end of the song completes this diversified atmospheric journey. Akephalos rise!“
In support of their new album, DAWN OF DISEASE will appear live on the following summer dates:
08.07.2017 DE – Rockharz Open Air, Ballenstedt
03.08.2017 DE – Wacken Open Air, Wacken

Since 2003 DAWN OF DISEASE have rumbled their way to the top as heavy weights of Germany’s Death Metal scene. Hailing from Osnabrück, DAWN OF DISEASE indulge some old school Swedish groove and raspy riffs: Bloodbath and At The Gates provide modern inspiration for aural inclinations of the band. However, their newest production won’t enjoy the well-tried manginess of long forgotten Death Metal days: The brand new album titled ‘Ascension Gate’ goes a different way with enthralling guitar work, enchanting management of melodies and brilliant tone. A hurricane of blastbeat drumming and the gigantic voice of Tomasz Wisniewski spark a fire that forges their spirit.
Now DAWN OF DISEASE unveil first and hotly anticipated details about their upcoming and fourth studio album ‘Ascension Gate’, which is set to be released on August 11st 2017 with Napalm Records!
Says the band: „’Ascension Gate’ was created and given birth within a comparatively short lapse of time. Thus it embodies pure energy and raw intensity. In comparison to our former releases our fourth full-length album is different in many ways as it modifies and expanses the musical elements we used to employ before. Besides the typical Dawn of Disease trademarks you will find more elaborate melodies that carry the listener through an atmospheric journey. Inspired by gloomy autumn days and the sheer endless darkness of winter ‘Ascension Gate’ adds more depth and catchiness to our sound than ever before without neglecting a huge portion of blastbeating brutality. Regardless of this dark and melancholic leitmotif we can promise you one thing: ‘Ascension Gate’ will bring you a very hot summer!“
The tracklist of ‘Ascension Gate’ will read as follows:
After monstrous records such as ‘Legends Of Brutality’ , ‘Crypts Of The Unrotten’ and most recently their epic ‘Worship The Grave’ released just last year, DAWN OF DISEASE set a new standard for the expanding Swedish Death Metal scene with ‘Ascension Gate’ – their fourth hail of bombs full of volatile riff power. This is the new era of modern Death Metal!
Coming August 11st 2017 on Napalm Records as CD, LP Gatefold and Digital Download, ‘Ascension Gate’ will be available to pre-order soon!
