Forest of Shadows julkaisee kolmannen albuminsa lähes kymmenen vuoden tauon jälkeen

Kirjoittanut Niko Kuusela - 27.9.2018

Ruotsalainen yhden miehen bändi Forest of Shadows julkaisee joulukuussa pitkään odotetun kolmannen albuminsa ”Among the Dormant Watchers.” Albumi jatkaa useampaan uuteen tyylisuuntaukseen, pitäen silti kiinni samasta synkkyydestä ja melankoliasta, joka on bändin tavaramerkki.

Niclas Frohagen kertoo:
“Among the Dormant Watchers” is the third full-length album from Forest of Shadows and it picks up where “Six Waves of Woe” left. Being in production for almost 10 years it has been influenced by a wide range of musical experiences. This can be heard on top of the musical fundament that has been even more cemented on this album with its slow paced, folk music inspired, melody-driven metal.
“Drowned by Guilt” is the first single from the album and it’s a classic “Forest of Shadows” song with long instrumental passages that builds up to crescendos of layered guitars and screamed vocals. On top of the classic sound you can hear inspiration from post rock and progressive rock. The lyrics are inspired by a nightmare where I found myself drowning and then from a third person perspective saw my dead body being dragged out of the water by grieving close ones.”
