Swallow the Sun
Not many bands hailing from Finland’s fertile metal scene find their way to Madison. That’s why this appearance by Swallow the Sun — a death-doom band that emphasizes melody and atmosphere — will be so special. The band arrives here in the wake of its eighth studio album, Moonflowers, which includes a second disc featuring classical versions of the album tracks recorded in a church. To borrow from the title of Swallow the Sun's recent live album, recorded in Helsinki in late February 2020 on the brink of the pandemic, their sound combines “gloom, beauty and despair.” Also on the bill: Veteran black metallers Abigail Williams, progressive-metal upstarts Wilderun, and Madison’s own doomsters Bereft.
media release: Note: proof of vaccination or negative test in past 72 hours will be required to attend this event.
Finnish death doom masters, SWALLOW THE SUN, are ready to hit the road of their Moonflowers Tour 2021, which includes support slots from Abigail Williams and Wilderun.
SWALLOW THE SUN will be on tour supporting their forthcoming full-length album, Moonflowers, which will be released worldwide via Century Media Records on November 19th. Moonflowers will be available as Ltd. Deluxe sky blue 3LP+2CD & Art Print Box Set, Ltd. 2CD Mediabook, Gatefold black 2LP+CD and digital album (incl. Bonus album) and can be pre-ordered, HERE.
Recently the band released their first track and music video off the album for “Woven Into Sorrow”. Watch the music video, HERE. “Woven Into Sorrow” is the first heavy version to be released off the record, as the band already released classical editions of the songs featured on Moonflowers.
