The uprising German black metallers Kankar reveal the new track "Dunkle Millennia". The track is taken from the band's highly anticipated debut album, Dunkle Millennia, set for international release on 19th March via Eisenwald. Kankar is a black metal duo hailing from Thuringia. The band began in 2016, and two years later had released their debut EP, Elemental Fury.
Now, Kankar makes their first grand statement with Dunkle Millennia, the duo's debut full-length. Immediately recognizable as Kankar but bolstered on every level - songwriting, performance, production - Dunkle Millennia literally bristles with electricity that's undeniable. For a band still (proudly) black metal, the Kankar of now here evince artistry that spans decades and even genres; one can detect trace elements of classic death metal, pagan metal, traditional metal, and even rock 'n' roll within the album's succinct-yet-expansive 45-minute runtime, and yet all of it's spliced and diced in a most fluid manner, and not once ever schizophrenic.
References to be made include everyone from classic Windir and Germany's Horn to more recent Satyricon and Vreid, from later Lunar Aurora and Skogen to even now-labelmates UADA, but Kankar are well on their way to etching out their own celebrated history with the startlingly developed Dunkle Millennia. Listen now to the album title track, and as well to the previously revealed "Zerfall des Lichts" in the players below. Link
