In fact, some of us hadn’t even crossed the twenty line yet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBetween 2002 and 2008 we managed to write and produce four albums and do the touring that came with it. After we kept our part of the deal, we were exhausted.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe writing of Eternal Kingdom had been energy draining and we needed a break. During the years that passed we realised that if we were going to continue, we had to do something different. We also found out the hard way that when you shut down the machine it takes quite a lot to get it going again. We had no label and all we knew was that we wanted to do something that felt like we were breaking into new territories.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSomewhere Along The Highway and Eternal Kingdom were inspired by the landscape of Västerbotten, the county we are from. We realised that there was only one way to go for us: to the city, into the future. Making a droney John Carpenter-esque album would be too easy and we’ve never been about taking the simple route. I was studying film at the time and had been floored by the aesthetic of German expressionism. This resonated perfectly with Erik Olofsson, who had just got into Italian futurism. This was a real challenge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBefore we even started to write we had talked extensively about what kind of colour scheme we wanted to use, what the band photos would look like and how we wanted to record the album to make it sound like a machine. That was the thing: when we finally got the machine started again, we aimed to become one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI had started to experiment with different tunings and one day I tuned down the lower B to G# and the main riff of what would later become Vicarious Redemption appeared from nowhere. I put a lot of effort into that song to make it a reference point of where we were going musically.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis would also be the first album where I had the full vocal responsibility. When we recorded two demo tracks in order to have something to show when we started to shop for labels, I had to do the vocals in one night and one morning. I remember leaving the studio after spending the night recording and feeling that this would never work out. I knew that taking over the vocal responsibility from Claes would be big shoes to fill, but maybe they were too big? I thought I sounded like a horse crow and if things didn’t improve, I needed to figure something out. Maybe a different vocalist? Luckily, and maybe by the grace of the metal gods, things did get better and we managed to record 30 minutes of music in just two days.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe put in a lot of effort to realize our vision of the stale, artificial city in all aspects of what an album is. The way we played guitar (only down strokes), the production, artwork and band photos, everything was done with the vision as a guide.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVertikal is the album where we had the most precise vision of what we wanted to do and worked hardest to transform it from an idea into reality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA lot of things happened during the years between Eternal Kingdom and Vertikal and I could continue writing for ages but this will do for now. Ten years have passed since its release and what felt like a rebirth of the band, the band that is still ongoing with new goals and missions. This box that we are very proud of consists of everything we recorded during the Vertikal session including the two demo tracks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt’s a full circle kind of thing. At the time we had no label and now we are releasing it on our very own.

A midpoint that needs to be crossed so we can finish what we started with 2019's 'A Dawn to Fear,'\" the band adds. \"It's been an interesting, as well as an introspective, way of working, having our instinct leading the way and then having to figure out where it takes us. But not only has it been a linear journey; some aspects of it are also clearly circular. For example, we have been a fan of Mark Lanegan for many years. So in 2005, when we wrote the song 'And With Her Came the Birds', we had his voice in mind, and the working title was 'The Lanegan Song'. But we were not many years over 20, and our lack of self-confidence prevented us from even daring to ask. It took fifteen years for us to get the guts to ask him. Hearing his voice on 'Inside Of A Dream' is nothing more than feeling that we're inside of a dream.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Season of Mist - International","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53418438525271,"sku":"P-103263-","price":12.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/6500\/8471\/files\/Cult-Of-Luna-The-Raging-River-CD-DIGIPAK-103263-1-1604996675.jpg?v=1778078425"},{"product_id":"cult-of-luna-the-raging-river-t-shirt-men","title":"Cult Of Luna - The Raging River - T-shirt (Men)","description":"","brand":"Season of Mist - International","offers":[{"title":"Small","offer_id":53418440687959,"sku":"P-103293-","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Medium","offer_id":53418440720727,"sku":"P-103294-","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Large","offer_id":53418440753495,"sku":"P-103295-","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"X-Large","offer_id":53418440786263,"sku":"P-103296-","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"XX-Large","offer_id":53418440819031,"sku":"P-103297-","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/6500\/8471\/files\/Cult-Of-Luna-The-Raging-River-T-shirt-103293-1-1605166559.jpg?v=1778078455"},{"product_id":"cult-of-luna-the-raging-river-lp-gatefold-coloured","title":"Cult Of Luna - The Raging River - LP Gatefold Coloured","description":"\u003cp\u003eTrack List:\u003cbr\u003e1.

Inspired by artists from hardcore, sludge metal, folk, art-rock and beyond, the Swedish luminaries are revered as one of the heaviest and most restless bands in alternative music. In the Shadow of Your Shadow is another bold leap into the black: possibly the darkest release to bear their name, yet full of ideas that show they’re still peerless 25 years since debuting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“Stagnation is the only thing that scares me,” states singer\/guitarist\/co-founder Johannes Persson. “I’ve said this in every interview I’ve done for the past 25 years: I don’t care whether or not people think we’re repeating ourselves. As long as we feel like we aren’t, we will continue to do this.”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis new, 10th studio album is a 71-minute monolith: a stark rejection of trends, convention and pandering to one’s audience. Lyrically, it channels recent experiences of loss into a bleak set of songs. The title track and lead single is about feelings thought to be long buried, returning after something painful occurs. It takes the perspective of this anguish and characterizes it as a parasite: “His body is weak, the cracks will fit me. A disfigured form, I will complete it.”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFollow-up ‘Sadness Will Reign’ is a blunt, misanthropic statement, declaring, “All of you are born from filth!” Screams from Joe Duplantier, frontman of Grammy-winning extreme metal titans Gojira, hammer home the track’s fury. But, for all the ferocity on show, the band also broaden their own horizons. ‘One More Day’ – a song about the emotional struggle of depression, getting through life one day at a time – drops to a Fields of the Nephilim-like crawl, emphasising the baritone of 16 Horsepower leader and American folk icon David Eugene Edwards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“David has been a huge influence for years,” says Persson. “I’ve been a huge fan of 16 Horsepower, his solo projects and Wovenhand for decades. ‘One More Day’ is one of my favorite tracks on the album. His voice fits perfectly on the song and it carries the subject matter with conviction.”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe album concludes with the cataclysmic ‘Burial’, the ending of which stacks some of Cult of Luna’s finest, hardest riffs into a truly towering achievement. A near-12-minute contemplation on mortality, it was inspired by the arc of life and death and how it’s perceived differently by people from different walks of life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“I’ve always had a non-dramatic relationship with death,” explains Persson. “I think it’s because I grew up in a religious environment where death was not considered the end.
