September 23, 2009, 15 years ago
BraveWords.com has received the following press release:
With former members of Finnish metallers AMORPHIS, plus current members of SWALLOW THE SUN, MOONSORROW, & KREATOR, Finland’s BARREN EARTH presents Our Twilight; the debut EP of progressive and folk textured death metal. Inspired by everything from OPETH to PINK FLOYD, and PARADISE LOST to JETHRO TULL, plus obscure psychedelic rock and Finnish prog, it’s a fine journey through the realm of melodic brutality and keyboard-soaked atmosphere.
The Our Twilight EP opens with the title track, a fine exploration of brooding doom metal and prog sensibilities. Following this is 'Jewel', an exclusive bonus track taken from the album recording session from Summer 2009. The second half of the EP comprises of two tracks, the epic 'The Flame of Serenity' and 'Floodred' - recorded in the summer of 2008, and specially remixed for this release by Dan Swanö at Unisound, who also provides additional keyboard parts on 'The Flame Of Serenity'.
Look out for the full-length debut album coming early 2010, containing the extended version of 'Our Twilight'.
Barren Earth features an experienced line-up from a host of internationally renowned and acclaimed outfits.

According to Dan Swanö (KATATONIA, OPETH, NOVEMBRE): "The perfect blend of light and darkness. A new level of amazing has been reached!!"
