One headline after the other: shortly after the release of MICHELLE DARKNESS solo album “Brand New Drug” (AFM Records) he doesn’t take a break. He appears as guest vocalist on the debut album of darklandcity’s newcomer SCRATCHED SURFACE. The album of the newcomers was recorded, produced and mixed by Ecki Erlenbusch (End Of Green, Undertow,...) in cooperation with Wolfram Lauster. On their first studio album “Nine Novembers Fall” the band accelerates und frontman Michael Babic tells: “Working with Michelle is very professional but also relaxed. For us it was great to work with the well-known singer because he has a lot of experience. Michelle Darkness, who came directly from recording his solo album in Finland, could show us our songs from another perspective. We could learn a lot and furthermore we evolved a stronger bandfeeling. All things conidered it was a fantastic time in the studio.”
This sounds like the perfect timing!?
Jens Lindmaier, bandleader and one of the guitarists of SCRATCHED SURFACE, says: “Michelle was in the studio anyway to help us and support Babic as a vocal coach. We thought that their voices both cooperated perfectly and he loved our songs. So we had the idea to do a feature on two songs. For him it was a new experience to adopt his voice in another kind of music and for our album it was an additional accent.
