The legendary Swedish pioneers of dark metal/rock music Lake Of Tears have returned after nearly a decade of silence. Now the winter is coming, and with it something ominous. Lake Of Tears have now released a brand new single, "At The Destination", which is the first revealed track taken from the forthcoming album entitled Ominous, set for release on 19th February 2021 via AFM Records.
Daniel Brennare, head and heart of the Swedish pioneers of dark music, finally reveals his sinister world of thought. Out of long years and intricate mathematics comes Ominous. Rooted in illness and depression, in days of grey. These moments, burdensome and overwhelming, are dissected and then reassembled into a linear story. Interwoven in sound, word and vision, with thought out precision. Lasting no longer than a moment but holding for an eon. Reaching no further than the horizon but stretching out to the cosmos. Brennare creates his vision at the end of the world, starring the cosmonaut and the ominous brothers.
He combines gothic rock with post-punk tunes, and quiet melancholic sounds that grow into powerful tracks, heavy and glutinous as liquid bitumen. Unhindered by the contemporary rules of form, Lake Of Tears present songs of unprecedented independence of mind. Any attempt to put Ominous into words and genre is doomed to fail, but maybe one could describe the quintessence as the illegitimate child of a short liaison between David Bowies "Space Oddity", The Sisters Of Mercy and Pink Floyd, with a brief touch of doom.
Though it is danceable with its electronic goth beats, don't be fooled.It will take you where you must go; to the end of the world. And with 'In wait and in worries', Lake Of Tears continues with an epic song immersed in a gloomy blackness. The foreboding of a coming doom is embedded in the words of Daniel´s warm, fragile voice. Ominous was recorded and mixed in Studiomega in Sweden by Christian Silver and his team, and produced by Daniel Brennare.
