Finnish doomsters SWALLOW THE SUN are releasing their new EP, Plague Of Butterflies via Spinefarm Records on these dates:
Finland - September 17th
UK - September 22nd
North America - September 23rd
An new interview with singer Mikko Kotamäki and guitarist Juha Raivio about the EP can be viewed below.
The band has described Plague Of Butterflies as "a story about an old hermit, deep woods, loneliness and the plague. It's one song in three parts and holds about 35 minutes of crushing gloom, beauty and despair. Music was originally ordered from us for a really interesting and big project, but the project was sadly abandoned. Because of this we are planning to use the music in different context - namely in a short movie - and we are in search for suitable partners to make this happen. We'll give more info on this later as things move on and wheels start to roll.”
The track list of Plague Of Butterflies: 'Losing the Sunsets', 'Plague of Butterflies', 'Evael 10:00'.
The album also includes the rare Out Of This Gloomy Light demo. There were only three demos sent out, so this is really rare stuff and holds some of the darkest and coldest moments ever recorded by Swallow the Sun.
Out Of This Gloomy Light demo: 'Through Her Silvery Body', 'Out of This Gloomy Light', 'Under the Waves', 'Swallow (Horror Pt.1)'.
