EMBASSY OF SILENCE To Release Debut Album In May

April 9, 2010

Finnish atmospheric rock/metal band EMBASSY OF SILENCE will release its debut album, "Euphorialight", on May 12 through the Swedish label Supernova Records.

Supernova is the new sublabel of Bonnier Amigo Music Group focusing on rock and metal genres. The publisher for the digital single is IODA Nordic, which is the global distributor for Supernova Records. The single "Soul-Broken" will be released in digital form on April 12, and samples from the album can be heard at the band's MySpace page.

According to a press release, "Euphorialight" is a "many-splendored album, with the dark gloominess of KATATONIA and ANATHEMA, or the progressive touches of PINK FLOYD and OPETH. The common denominator in the songs are Ines’ spine-chillingly beautiful voice and the catchy melodies of the choruses."

"Euphorialight" features several guest artists, such as Aapo Romu, the cellist of VANGUARD, and on backing vocals Andy Koski Semmens (EREPIA, 0 X I S T; ex-ESOTERIC, ex-PANTHEIST),Juhani Palomäki (COLOSSEUM) and Teppo Tirkkonen (THE PURIFICATION). The CD was recorded at D-Studios, Finland with Jarno Hänninen, and mastered at Sweden's Cutting Room with Björn Engelmann.
