“Uniformity”, the new video from Swedish melodic death metallers DARK TRANQUILLITY, can be seen below. The clip was filmed on April 13 withPatric Ullaeus of Revolver Film Company, who has previously worked with DIMMU BORGIR, LACUNA COIL, IN FLAMES, SONIC SYNDICATEand KAMELOT, among others.
“Uniformity” comes off DARK TRANQUILLITY‘s tenth studio album,“Construct”, which will be released on May 27 via Century Media Records. The CD was mixed by Jens Bogren (PARADISE LOST, OPETH,KATATONIA) at his Fascination Street studios in Örebro, Sweden.
Comments the band: “After the introspective ‘For Broken Words’ and the uptempo riffing of ‘The Science Of Noise’, it’s time to showcase the more anthemic aspects of the new album with the song ‘Uniformity’.
“In contrast to the more experimental promo videos we made last year, we wanted the ‘Uniformity’ clip to be an intimate and genuine performance video. Nothing but the music itself and the band members playing in the rehearsal room. For this, we hired renowned director Patric Ullaeus, and we’re very happy to share the result with you.
“Stand up and be counted!”

Commented the band: “The selected few people that so far have been granted the privilege of hearing the full album are uniformingly convinced that ‘Construct’ is the strongest and most exciting DARK TRANQUILLITYalbum in a long time, and who are we to disagree? While still bearing the unmistakable mark of the DARK TRANQUILLITY, the record is probably our most different and diverse offering since 1999’s ‘Projector’. For now, we’re pleased to share the tracklist, trailer and sleeve design with you, but the first musical preview will appear in the near future.”
DARK TRANQUILLITY recently amicably parted ways with bassist Daniel Antonsson. According to the band, “Daniel wanted to focus on his own musical projects as well as working more in his recording studio. Being first and foremost a guitarist, he felt that the playing bass in a full-time band didn’t allow him much time for his main instrument and true passion. With this in mind, he chose to follow his heart and step aside at this point instead of committing to another album and an intense touring cycle that would leave little room for other activities.”
