Katatonia
With an album like ‘The Great Cold Distance’ as predecessor that was laying bars so extremely high for a successor, surely anything could’ve happened to the next KATATONIA album. Fortunately, ‘Night Is The New Day’ became an overall success for the Swedish band that actually started with strong Death Metal influences. Hardly possible you’d think hearing that album now, which for the first time incorporates dense key layers into the truly catatonic and profoundly melancholy sound.

Berlin Dark Metal formation EDEN WEINT IM GRAB are announcing the release of their upcoming new album ‘Geysterstunde I - Ein poetisches Spektakel zu Mitternacht’. Fans are being offered now a free download of the opener and title track ‘Geysterstude’ for free and in its entirety. The full album will contain 15 songs; their titles being revealed soon. Those tracks will revolve around paranormal things, horror, supernatural occurences etc. (With a tang of irony of course) and on 6th May will cater for clattering blinds, electronic devices getting a live of their own and whizzing shadows on the walls.
