"From Darkness to Light” - 8th studio album by Narnia drops august 2nd
Sweden. May 2nd, 2019
Today, Swedish metal band, Narnia, announces the release-date for its eighth studio-album; From Darkness to Light. First single – A Crack In The Sky – will be available on all digital platforms, May 31st. The single will also be released along with a music video, produced by Mats Vassfjord (Grand Design and 220 Volt).
Narnia’s new album; From Darkness To Light is the band’s eight studio album, and a natural sequel to the previous, self-titled album, from the band’s return and 20th anniversary in 2016.
The spark that Narnia lit on last year’s live album We Still Believe - Made in Brazil, has followed the band into the studio, where this energy has been channeled and structured into a long parade of nine songs.
With the musical roots remaining deep in melodic metal, the band has both stretched on to a modern sound where the guitars still dominate, but also allows analogue 70/80’s analogue synthesizers to take place in the soundscape.
The lyrics are noticeably important to the band and in true Narnia spirit this heritage has been well managed and further refined.
The album is produced by Narnia’s guitarist CJ Grimmark, mixed by the band’s sound engineer Viktor Stenquist, and mastered by Jens Bogren, Fascination Street Studios.
From Darkness To Light will be released on CD, vinyls in different colors and digitally August 2nd , and distributed by Sound Pollution (Europe, USA, Australia), King Records (Asia) and Voice Music (South America). The album-release will be followed up with a tour in 2019-2020, starting in South America, together with Stryper and Tourniquet.
First single, A Crack in the Sky, will be released on all major digital platforms May 31st, along with a music video produced by Mats Vassfjord (Grand Design and 220 Volt).
