Summoning uuden albumin kimpussa
Itävaltalainen black metal -yhtye Summoning on antanut Darkview-sivustolle haastattelun, jossa se paljastaa työstävänsä uutta täyspitkää albumia. Synkän tunnelmoivasta musiikistaan ja J.R.R. Tolkienin tarinoihin pohjautuvista sanoituksistaan tunnettu duo on julkaissut aiemmin seitsemän täyspitkää sekä useita lyhyempiä äänitteitä. Lue täältä kuinka yhtyeen jäsenet Silenius ja Protector kuvailevat uutta levyä:
Silenius kertoo albumin edistymisestä:
”We are working already for a new album. Everything started a year ago, when we looked through the remaining riffs from the last ”Old Mornings Dawn” session. We still had some unfinished songs and a few isolated riffs remaining.
We took them and composed new music around them or took the riffs and added it to new material. At the moment we finished the recording session, but it will still take some time to finish the whole album, because we have to work out a lyrical concept and add the guitar lines to the music.
What we can say is that two songs are dealing with the ”Akallabêth”; the first song refers to ”Ar-pharazôn”. This is a long instrumental song and will be used instead of the usual intro song that was a kind of tradition for all our albums ’till now.
The second song deals with the downfall of the ”Númenor”.This is the information we have at the moment, everything else is still in process.”
Protector kuvailee uuden albumin musiikillista tyyliä:
”The new album contains more polyphonic melodies and therefore loses the feeling of ”Oath Bound”, but it keeps the sound of ”Old Mornings Dawn” (like the deeper guitars and the clearer sound). The reason for that is that this time the gap between the last album and the future one is not as big as it was between ”Oath Bound” and ”Old Mornings Dawn”. The guitar riffs/melodies will be close to the last one.”
