April 18, 2013, 11 years ago
Germany's dark metal quintet AGATHODAIMON are currently working hard on the successor to their 2009 release Phoenix, at Kohlekeller Studios with producer Kristian "Kohle" Kohlmannslehner.
The band's new album is entitled In Darkness and will be released June 28th via Massacre Records.
Check out the cover artwork created by Hicham Haddaji of Strychneen Studio below:
Guitarist and vocalist Sathonys commemts:
"We’re sure In Darkness has a lot of killer songs, and we did step into the right direction - though it’s also a step backwards. Back to the roots, to be clear. We collectively felt that Phoenix reached a point that’s as far as we can go, without denying our roots. So we summoned the spirit of the old times (of course without trying to pretend it’s 1995). We put focus on the atmosphere and got rid of elements which did not fit to our vision. To summarize, I’d say it’s less technical, but more dense, coming rather from the heart than our heads. This sounds strange maybe, but you’ll get it once you’ll hear the first songs."A few impressions from the studio are available on the band's Facebook page.
