Swedish blackened doom metal act Der Trauerschwan has revealed more details about its upcoming debut full-length, Sanguinare Vampiris. The album will be released via Soulseller Records on 25 November on CD, vinyl (black & grey) and digitally. The whole production and artwork were conducted by the sole composer and mastermind Tristan Moreau.
Parting ways with Hetroertzen in late 2021, bassist Ham continued down a path of his own and, as Tristan Moreau, founded Der Trauerschwan the same year in the Swedish town Västerås. Sanguinare Vampiris is the completion of poetry and song that was written during the past two pandemic years. Inspired by the English poets of the romantic era, lyrical themes explore the naked diary of a vampire, and while musically bleak conjunction between 90's black and doom metal, the harmonic teachings of classical music theory also have a certain impact. With influences reaching from Summoning to My Dying Bride, Der Trauerschwan provides a unique blend of sombre doom and black metal, with vampiric-themed lyrics expressed through haunting songwriting.
