Swedish dark/occult rock act The Other Sun, who will release on 23 July via Invictus Productions (Europe) in conspiracy with The Ajna Offensive (North America), the debut album entitled Daimon, Devil, Dawn, presents the new track "Black As Gold".
The Other Sun also draws influence from surf rock, western score, and 70s rock. People have suggested they hear bits of Tito & Tarantula, Swans, Deep Purple, The Devil's Blood, Virus (Norway), Dick Dale, and Ennio Morricone in their music. Daimon, Devil, Dawn is their debut album. Many of the lyrics are inspired by alchemical imagery as metaphors for the human condition. In particular, "Stalking the Stalker" was inspired by the poem "The Street" by Mexican author Octavio Paz.
The Other Sun was formed in Gothenburg, Sweden in 2018 by Fredrik Eytzinger. Their first EP, Horizon Between The Eyes, was released through Lapis Niger Productions in 2019. The current line-up consists of Fredrik Eytzinger (lyrics, vocals, guitars, bass), Árni Bergur Zoëga (vocals, guitars, bass, drums, keyboards), and Tommie Eriksson (session solo guitars).
