Swedish meritorious masters of melancholic metal Katatonia carry on their legacy of rearranging the order of the heavy music universe, proudly presenting their hauntingly beautiful next studio album, Sky Void Of Stars, out on 20 January 2023 via Napalm Records.
Founded in 1991, Katatonia has continually embraced the dark and the light alike and, living through genre evolutions beyond compare, ripened their particular form of expression. From doom and death metal to soul-gripping post-rock, they've explored endless spheres of the genre, accumulating only the very best aspects. After signing with Napalm Records, the entity around founding members Jonas Renkse and Anders Nyström is ready to showcase its brilliance and illuminate the void in the scene once more with Sky Void Of Stars.
With the first single/video, "Atrium", Katatonia hits with a highly energetic atmosphere, holding a gloomy ambience with epic sounds and poetic lyrics to get lost in. The heartfelt piece of sound goes in line with a gripping music video, underlining the exceptional atmosphere the five-piece is creating with every single note.
Katatonia on the new album, Sky Void Of Stars: "Our 12th album, Sky Void Of Stars is a dynamic journey through vibrant darkness. Born out of a yearning for what was lost and not found, the very peripheries of the unreachable, but composed and condensed into human form and presented as sounds and words true to the Katatonia signum. No stars here, just violent rain".
