DEW-SCENTED: New Audio Interview With LEIF JENSEN
July 30, 2012Steel And Fire recently conducted an interview with vocalist Leif Jensen of German thrashers DEW-SCENTED. You can now listen to the chat using the audio player below.
DEW-SCENTED's new album, "Icarus", will be released on July 31 in North America via Prosthetic Records (one day earlier internationally through Metal Blade Records). The CD features guest appearances by Dan Swanö (EDGE OF SANITY, BLOODBATH),Rob Urbinati (SACRIFICE) and Dennis Schneider (RETALIATION, FINAL BREATH).
Jensen previously described the "Icarus" main theme as "a modern-times, very apocalyptic adaption of elements of the Icarus myth, using a lot of its symbolism while interlinking with several other personal or observant subjects in true DEW-SCENTED fashion." While the album — recorded at Soundlodge Studio and produced by Jörg Uken (NIGHTFALL, SUICIDAL ANGELS, GOD DETHRONED) — is not quite a concept album per se, Jensen said "Icarus" "has a pretty coherent lyrical flow, and that helps to enhance and also to intentionally enlarge the atmosphere and vibe created by the music." The "Icarus" cover artwork was once created by Björn Goosses of Killustrations.
