Swedish melancholic Metallers IN MOURNING have far transcended above
their predecessors with this intoxicating brand new full-length effort
entitled “Monolith”.
Picking up right from where they left off with the highly successful
debut “Shrouded Divine”, “Monolith” continues with the same approach
but this is an entirely different beast, with far more accomplished
musicianship and songwriting. The compelling performance on “Monolith”
is way beyond words can describe; the throbbing sorrow and darkness
have finally eclipsed!
Recorded, mixed and mastered at Black Lounge Studio, Sweden (Carnal
Forge, Scar Symmetry, Steel Attack, etc) with Scar Symmetry axe-man
Jonas Kjellgren, and with the perfectly fitting style of introspect
artist Travis Smith (Nevermore, Opeth, Strapping Young Lad, King
Diamond, etc), “Monolith” is sonically and aesthetically lamenting, and
will without a doubt be one of the pinnacle albums in 2010.
MARKETING AND PROMOTION / SELLING POINTS:
• IN MOURNING garnered a lot of positive attention and rave reviews worldwide with their debut album “Shrouded Divine”.
• Formed in 2000 and although a relatively young band, IN MOURNING had
already released 5 self-financed demos and thus developed a unique
style of melancholic yet catchy songwriting throughout the formative
years.
• “Monolith” is the logical follow-up album from the debut “Shrouded
Divine”, but with a far more mature and progressive songwriting style,
clocking over 55 minutes in running time.
• “Monolith” is once again recorded at the Black Lounge Studio, Sweden,
together with engineer / producer / Scar Symmetry guitarist Jonas
Kjellgren. Black Lounge Studio is a recording haven to many established
and legendary acts such as Carnal Forge, Steel Attack, Scar Symmetry,
etc.
• The artwork and layout for “Monolith” was designed and supervised by
world-renowned introspect artist Travis Smith (Nevermore, Opeth,
Strapping Young Lad, King Diamond, Katatonia, etc).
• For fans of Opeth, Katatonia, Swallow The Sun, etc!
