DARKANE To Release 'Layers Of Live' DVD In July

June 9, 2010

Swedish thrashers DARKANE will release their first live DVD, "Layers Of Live", in July via Listenable.

Commented guitarist Christofer Malmström: "Finally! You are holding hundreds of hours of work in your hand.

"We've done everything ourselves together with our friend and video director, Per Christoffersson.

"This DVD contains so much more than just a live show, it could be described as the bible for every true DARKANE fan, and this is a way for us to say thank you for your support!

"Since the beginning of DARKANE (and long before that),we've always brought a video camera when recording in a studio or playing live, always with the intention to some day release a live DVD.

"The main live show was shot May 4th, 2006 in a small but legendary club called The Tivoli in our hometown, Helsingborg. We also had cameramen shooting from the audience to give you the feeling of being right there with the audience.

"The bonus live tracks were shot during smaller shows in Sweden and bigger summer festivals 2002 -2003.

"The Tivoli show was an unofficial warm-up show before our Japan tour in 2002, while the Dunkers Kulturhus show was our first show after recording 'Expanding Senses', and the only show we did with white clothes. We've also selected songs that we didn't play at the main concert. Some songs we've only played live a couple of times and are very rare live material.

"The release of this DVD also celebrates the first 10 years in the history of DARKANE and we hope there will be many years to come."

"Demonic Art", the fifth album from DARKANE, debuted at No. 104 on the Top New Artist Albums (Heatseekers) chart, which lists the best-selling albums by new and developing artists, defined as those who have never appeared in the Top 100 of The Billboard 200.

"Demonic Art" was released in North America on February 10 via Nuclear Blast Records. The North America version of the CD, which came out in Europe on October 24, 2008 via Massacre Records, contains a bonus track and a bonus DVD.
