Finland's DARK THE SUNS Release "Aurora" Single / Video - "We Have Recorded Seven Songs For The Next Album"

Finnish melodic metal band, Dark The Suns, is set to release their as-yet-untitled fifth studio album in 2023 via Inverse Records. A new single, 'Aurora', taken from the upcoming album was released today. Check out the official video below. 

Mikko and Inka Ojala comment:

"'Aurora' is the second single from our fifth album. At this moment we have recorded seven songs for the next album. We will record three songs more for the album in the beginning of year 2023. 'Aurora' is a melancholic and atmospheric song, with lots of emotions of living among the northern nature. The song includes beautiful piano melodies, heavy guitars, whispering voices and dark vocals."

In 2005 Dark the Suns was founded by Mikko Ojala. In 2006 the band grew when three new members (bass player Inka, Juha on the keyboards and drummer Markus) joined the band, which signed with Firebox Records that same year.

 

During 2007-2010 Firebox Records released the band’s three full-length albums (I

Darkness Comes Beauty, All Ends in Silence and Sleepwalking In A Nightmare). The band performed many live shows during these years.

There have been some changes in the line-up over the years, but Mikko and Inka have been continuously together, making music. The band was inactive for 2013-2020 but in 2020 Mikko and Inka decided to resume making music together. It was a really natural way to continue the band as a duo, because they have written almost all the band’s music and lyrics during all these years.

In 2020 and 2021 Inverse Records released four singles from the band’s 4th album, Suru Raivosi Sydämeni Pimeydessä. The album includes ten songs of melancholic and melodic Finnish metal music. The band has always described their music as ”Beautiful piano melodies and dark vocals”.
