Finnish melodic/atmospheric gothic/doom metal collective Hanging Garden drops the second single and live video from its forthcoming digital EP of remade songs off their latest full-length The Garden (2023). The EP, Citylight Sessions, sees the band transform its style from gothic/doom to dark synth-pop mixed with rock. The five-track journey is coming to streaming platforms on 19 April via Agonia Records.
Citylight Sessions EP was recorded during an intimate live performance at the contemporary gallery space of the design company Paja & Bureau. The juxtaposition of Hanging Garden's haunting melodies against the backdrop of Paja & Bureau's innovative design space creates an experience that is delightfully distinct from conventional music venues. The entire performance was filmed and is expected to be unveiled in video format with the EP's premiere.
