Cemetery Skyline - Nordic Gothic (Deluxe Edition) Cemetery Skyline
Pickup currently unavailable at Dawson Street
"Who would have wanted us to form a new extreme metal band? Well, maybe someone actually, but that's not the case this time, because we have something completely different on our plate..." The thoughtful voice belongs to guitarist extraordinaire Markus Vanhala (Insomnium, Omnium Gatherum). In the new dark band 'Cemetery Skyline', Vanhala is joined by keyboardist Santeri Kallio (Amorphis), drummer Vesa Ranta (Sentenced, The Abbey), bassist Victor Brandt (Dimmu Borgir and many more) and vocalist Mikael Stanne (Dark Tranquillity, The Halo Effect).
"With 'Cemetery Skyline' we're going in musical directions untrodden before - into those darker alleys that are close to our hearts but that we haven't really wandered through before. And we're collectively very excited!" One of the key words, gothic, has already been mentioned. "We all share a deep love of '80s and '90s goth rock - whether it's more synth-driven or heavier, guitar-dominated stuff. You know with the best bands from The Sisters of Mercy to Type O Negative," says Santeri Kallio, who shares songwriting duties with Vanhala. "But is 'Cemetery Skyline' a goth band? Maybe to a certain extent, but that's certainly not the whole story. If you have to describe the diverse music of 'Cemetery Skyline' somehow, do us a favor and call us ambassadors of melodic, melancholic and dark rock. Thank you."
The content of the band's lyrics is deeply embedded in the dark gothic atmosphere. The concept written by Stanne - for the first time in his remarkable career, Mikael uses clean vocals throughout the album - irresistibly delves into the paradoxical world of "northern loneliness". "The lyrics are deeply rooted in the self-imposed loneliness of Nordic people, their anti-social behavior and their dark sense of humor.... When writing the lyrics, I took advantage of this peculiarity, which could be described as the Scandinavian gothic lifestyle," says Stanne.
