Nightrage is back once again, delivering one of their best albums, in their 23 years of existence, without stopping creating uncompromising music for their devoted fanbase.
“Remains Of A Dead World” is the 10th album of the band and this time the band returned to where everything had started, since Nightrage was born in Greece in 2000.
With the great help of their past bandmate and now producer, sound engineer, Fotis Benardo (Rotting Christ, Septicflesh, Sakis Tolis, Nightfall, On Thorns I lay, Suicidal Angels) at his Devasoundz studio in Athens Greece, and with his great producing skills, “Remains Of A Dead World” is a mixture of all the things that makes Nightrage a beast of integrity, they prove to be one of the last remaining true masters of the melodic death metal genre, fully unstoppable riffing, and great hooks with bigger than life guitar melodies with brutal vocals that represents the honesty and pure musical delivery, that comes straight from the heart.
The album has been mastered by a great friend of the band George Nerantzis (Abbath, Dark Funeral, Pain Of Salvation, Sakis Tolis, ) and his great skills gave the album a huge sound with clarity, power and analog flavor.
About the new single they had this to say:
Marios:
Euphoria Within Chaos strikes hard, it's one these types of songs that you are expecting from us, strong, hard, and super melodic, loving the chemistry that me and Magnus once again showcase here, without trying too hard, we always come up with riffs and material that fits together perfectly.
Dig the super aggressive verse riffs and the melodic chorus with the signature nightrage guitar melodies, the bridge in the middle of the song is groovier than ever, and the needed clean break, balancing the tune after such hard hitting.
The song talks about the inner continuous sacrifice for self improvement while struggling to cope with external difficulties in order to achieve what we desire in life.
The lyrics emphasize the dark feeling we sometimes feel when we almost give up on trying, but hope and strength are always the way to recover and keep moving forward.
Lyrics:
This feeling of dark sorrow comes to beckon me
It points out all that I’ve become
A Losing battle is not the end of (the) war
Another chance to victimize these words
Eternally
We always knew
That sacrifice invented pain and life
Behind the veil
A wall of mist
Become the shadows of our past
We’ve come to take you away
Before this grief appears
Enter the shelter of fate
Revive the embers of the past
Surrounded by the night meander like a flood
Out of this dream I crawl into this dead world
A Fast trigger to end these horrible thoughts
Terrorizing my existence to the bone
Eternally
We always knew
That sacrifice invented pain and life
Behind the veil
A wall of mist
Become the shadows of our past
We’ve come to take you away
Before this grief appears
Enter the shelter of fate
Revive the embers of the past
Revive the embers of the past
Take me away
Clean
This lonesome heartfelt emotion
With pride I leave behind
This filthy world of shadows and lies
With pride I leave behind
This filthy world of shadows and lies
Eternally
We always knew
That sacrifice invented pain and life
Behind the veil
A wall of mist
Become the shadows of our past
We’ve come to take you away
Before this grief appears
Enter the shelter of fate
Revive the embers of the past
Before this grief appears
Revive the embers of the past
