The wait is finally over! Today Helsinki's longest-serving gothic rock vampires, The 69 Eyes, arise from their crypt announcing their new studio album Death Of Darkness. The record will see the light of day on 21 April via Atomic Fire Records (in Finland via Vallila Music House). Physical versions will be available in the US on 5 May.
The 69 Eyes' frontman Jyrki 69 comments: "We started to make this album single by single, releasing first singles then an EP and now eventually the whole album. The method kept everything fresh and us on our toes while recording and writing new music. Our main aim was to get The 69 Eyes back to the Finland's airwaves. Our music is still on the radio but over fifteen-year-old classics. How about new ones? The first single, 'Drive', made this happen and we hit the jackpot here in Finland by being a part of Sing meinen Song - Das Tauschkonzert mainstream TV music show format! Now The 69 Eyes are back in the spotlight and Finland's top rock band is playing sold-out shows".
Death Of Darkness was recorded and produced by Erno Laitinen at Inkfish Studios in Helsinki. Miles Walker took care of the mixing at Westside Sound Studios in Atlanta, Georgia alongside Erno Laitinen while mastering duties were handled by Tom Baker. The artwork was created by the UK artist Adrian Baxter (Paradise Lost, The Halo Effect, Mayhem, Schammasch). Link
