Getting to Soundflakes Recording Studio on a hot day like this surely the last thing I was expecting was to blown away by the prehearing session of the new studio album of DIMLIGHT “The Lost Chapters”.
After half hour of chit chat with their manager and talking about almost everything it was time to get inside the rehearsing room, sit comfortably on the leather couch and enjoy the music. And by the gods surely we did!!
“The Lost Chapters” is based on the story of the pre-pyramid scripts for the goddess Hathor. More information about the concept you can learn when the album will be released and especially from the 30 pages novella that will be alongside with the cd. MariosKoutsoukos did an amazing job with the research and taking this concept to DIMLIGHT.
Now for the musical part. DIMLIGHT made 2-3 steps forward with this album. Their base sound that we heard in their previous releases are there but they are better, darker and more majestic. Three big changes took place in the ranks of the band. Darien is back (and with the job he did in the orchestral part, I can say he’s back with a bang) , the band has a new female singer Eva and behind the drum kit is Jim. The sound is huge, and the production and mixing is surely tremendous. The band is putting all their influences in themolt and the outcome is apocalyptic.
Well DIMLIGHT have something to be proud of in their hands and the whole package is very appealing to our eyes and especially to our ears. A few days of patience and then…you can all melt the cd’s……I know it will!!
