Humanae

At last there is some official info on the new Laethora album. “The light in which we all burn” will be released worldwide through The End on April 27, 2010. A taster in the shape of the track “Humanae” can be found on the redesigned MySpace page here.

Obligatory self-quote about the song:

“Humanae is one of the more eclectic songs from the album, and it’s a good representation of what we wanted to achieve. Elements from different extreme metal subgenres are blended with more progressive chord progressions, all topped off with an epic ending part that still sends shivers through our spines. Hope you’ll like it, and stay tuned for more updates as the release date draws closer.”

Brief update? Why, yes….

Things are über busy at the moment, so not a whole lot of time to post any extensive updates.

Inbetween the projects that currently occupy my days, I’ve had some quick sketching sessions – both in the computer and in the moleskine – to get some relief. Mr. Fish here is one of several new creatures emerging from those.

Finally made some well-needed updated to the Dark tranquillity homepage as well and got around to updating the tattoo section. There are now no less than 67 pieces of D.T. related ink displayed, and it’s very humbling that our music has struck a chord with so many people to the degree that they’ve chosen to make us a part of their skin.

Laethora has a new rehearsal room! Sticks-and-skins maestro mr. Aakesson has uploaded some drumming footage to his YouTube channel, so check out the madman in action. Release info on the new album will come later this month, and new material is already in the making.
