DÉCEMBRE NOIR - Fifth Full-Length Out Now; Reveals New Video

German melancholic doom/death metal unit Décembre Noir has released via Lifeforce Records their new album Your Sunset | My Sunrise. The band has also revealed the brand new video for the track "Sleepwalker (In Yesterday's Past)". The classic performance video was shot by Alexander Dietz of Heaven Shall Burn and their long-time videographer Philipp Hirsch.

As for the direction of their new album, Décembre Noir reveal the following: "Your Sunset | My Sunrise is the cry for inner peace set to music. A heavy heart full of tears, which threatens to plunge its bearer into the abyss at any moment. Even if this means giving up oneself, in the end only the long-awaited silence counts. It is the escape on the wings of addiction from the battlefield of never-ending depression."
 
The approach of the band from Thuringia, Germany also reaches deep on their fifth full-time album - both lyrically and musically. This is already known from the previous records The Renaissance Of Hope (2020), Autumn Kings (2018), Forsaken Earth (2016) and A Discouraged Believer (2014). Décembre Noir act consistently atmospheric, gloomily tuned and open to interpretation. The underlying thoughts, emotions and intentions of the songs of the quintet are not always clearly determinable. And they don't have to be. For the nuances and forebodings set to music have a special significance in the German band's playing.
 
What once started between doom and death metal, has developed over the years and releases an independent, organic gloomy sound, which achieves its ominous effect space and its captivating fascination quite independently of liking or style questions. On Your Sunset | My Sunrise, produced by Heaven Shall Burn's Alexander Dietz at his Chemical Burn Studio, Décembre Noir again relies on melancholic as well as melodically addressed pieces that stand completely on their own and therefore captivate because they are presented so heavy, dark and atmospheric.
