Italian gothic/doom masters The Foreshadowing are finally back! Today they released the first single, "Lobbies", from the upcoming album entitled New Wave Order. The album will hit the stores on 15 November via Lifeforce Records. It's been a while since the last full album by Italian masters of cultivated melancholy.
Founded in 2005, The Foreshadowing can look back on a successful and eventful history. Listeners of gothic, doom and dark metal are very familiar with the quartet's work. The Foreshadowing gained popularity on the international scene with four acclaimed albums released between 2007 and 2016: Days Of Nothing (2007), Oionos (2010), Second World (2012) and Seven Heads, Ten Horns (2016).
In 2023, The Foreshadowing ended a forced break of several years with the EP Forsaken Songs and a European tour with Saturnus and In The Woods.... Now, New Wave Order is the group's fifth full-length album and their debut on Lifeforce Records. The formation from Rome emphasizes its strengths on the album and offers cinematic tracks of dark music that is nevertheless immensely catchy and mood-enhancing. Link
