Dark Fortress - Venereal Dawn

Wie is das letzte Album eig? Hab ich bis heut nich gehört
Ich persönlich finde es richtig gut, gefällt mir besser als ylem da die Songs epischer und weniger zerfahren sind.
Absolut grandioses Konzept dahinter.
Hat etwas Soundtrack artiges an sich, ohne dabei im geringsten kitschig zu sein.

Hm ok. Wobei ich die Ylem jetzt nicht zerfahren finde. Eher erfrischend mutig.
Ich werd nachher vlt mal reinhören, wenn ich zeit hab.
 
Ich hoffe auf ein Album in der Klasse wie Eidolon, das ist mein Liebling von denen. Die Veneral Dawn fand ich gar nicht so super, muss ich gestehen. Und ich hoffe, dass Morean noch am Mikro steht.
 
Hab auch schon befürchtet, dass da nix mehr nachkommt. Das sind sehr gute Neuigkeiten, finde die gesamte Discografie großartig.
 
Hi folks! Here's the long awaited update on the new studio album.

We are currently putting finishing touches to our eighth studio album. V. Santura comments:

“We have been working intensely on our new album over various sessions in the last couple of months. The title will be “Spectres from the Old World”. We decided to keep quite silent and vague about the process but now the recordings are basically completed. We have just finished recording all of the lead vocals with Morean on Monday, and only a few last details and two guitar solos are missing. Again, I am blown away by the power and versatility of Morean’s vocals. “Spectres from the Old World” will probably be perceived as less “progressive” than its two predecessors “Venereal Dawn” and “Ylem”, but it is more compact, super intense and I love the sheer power and dark energy it bursts forth.”

The album will be mixed and mastered in October and early November by guitarist and producer V. Santura at Woodshed Studio in Germany and released worldwide via Century Media in late February 2020. More news will follow.




STAB WOUNDS Re-Release

The classic third DARK FORTRESS album, “Stab Wounds” (2004), will be re-released via Century Media Records on November 22nd, 2019. V. Santura states:
“I am more than excited that our third album “Stab Wounds” will finally be re-released. This has been long overdue since the album hasn’t been available for more than half a decade now, neither on CD or vinyl nor even on any digital platform such as Spotify. “Stab Wounds” has always maintained a huge meaning for us as a band and I see it as the album that really defined the style and core of DARK FORTRESS’ sound for the first time. With the re-release of “Stab Wounds” and the previous re-releases of our first two albums in 2017, our whole discography is finally available again. Century Media did a great job in giving the re-release a classy and noble design and I am especially enthused about the remastering which makes this the ultimate release of “Stab Wounds” in my opinion.”

As a first taste for what is about to come the track “Despise the ‘Living’’’ is released today, V. Santura adds:
“I was honestly a bit surprised that Century Media picked the song “Despise The Living” as the first song to promote “Stab Wounds”. “Despise The Living” hasn’t been part of our live repertoire for ages while we still play a bunch of other songs of “Stab Wounds” quite regularly. “Despise The Living” feels like one of our “forgotten” songs to me, but I like the idea that it receives some attention again. On “Stab Wounds” all lyrics were written by our vocalist Azathoth at the time, but “Despise The Living” was the first song that I ever composed entirely for DARK FORTRESS. I remember it was an incredibly hot summer day in 2002 which is quite the opposite to its very “icy” vibe, but it also displays quite some fire and enthusiasm.”

Das liest sich ganz in meinem Sinne, denn so sehr ich die beiden Alben liebe, muss es für meinen Geschmack nicht noch ziselierter werden, weswegen ich den angedeuteten Weg in eine konzisere Richtung sehr begrüße und das Resultat mit Spannung erwarte...!
