Norwegian female fronted dark alternative/avantgarde metallers Madder Mortem have as promised unveiled the first track from their upcoming album Marrow, which will be released on Dark Essence Records on the 21st September. Titled "Moonlight Over Silver White", the track is, according to the band, "the essence of what Madder Mortem is about. The contrasts between the gentle and the brutal, the chugging grooviness of the guitars in counterpoint to the soaring arpeggios of the vocals, and the wide range of musical influences knit together in a damn strong, heavy song. The lyrics are a tale of the loneliness of a forest in winter, walking lost and small between the downy snow and the glaring stars".
Marrow sees Madder Mortem hungrier and heavier than ever before. The eleven-track album is complex, covering a wide variety of genres and sounds that range from moments of folk/prog to avant-garde. From delicate ballads to harsh metal. Agnete M. Kirkevaag's dynamic and immensely powerful vocals, are, as always, at the fore on an album that is more doomy than its predecessor Red In Tooth And Claw, as well as being at times both heavier, and catchier. With artwork by the legendary artist Thore Hansen, Marrow will be available in digipak CD, digital and limited edition green vinyl gatefold LP formats. Listen now to the fantastic "Moonlight Over Silver White" in the player below and expect even more in the coming weeks. Link
