Burn Down Eden announce new EP ‘Dismal’

BURN DOWN EDEN have announced a new EP!

Titled Dismal, the upcoming EP from the German melodic death metal band is the follow-up to 2022’s Sermonize, and is scheduled to be released in April this year, via Seek & Strike.

Alongside the announcement of the new EP, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming EP; Reap The Apocalypse. Speaking about the new song, and the upcoming EP, the band says, “our new track, Reap The Apocalypse, started as a demo with the marching triplet main riff leading into the catchy and epic chorus. That unit set the vibe and everything else was constructed around it. Reap The Apocalypse tells the story about a cult and how the people within it are just blindly following a con-artist to only end up losing all their money, belief in society and will to live. It was soon pretty obvious that this is going to be a single, since it’s a straight banger that represents BURN DOWN EDEN‘s best aspects. It’s catchy and melodic, yet filled with sinister shredding paired with infernal blast beats.

The riffs and melodies had a similar feel to our previous release Sermonize, just more coherent and taken to the next level. We ultimately decided to break this full-length album into two EPs. The first EP, Dismal, features the more darker and intense songs, as opposed to the next EP, Epiphany, which has more of the grandiose and upbeat tracks. In the end, you’re going to have one mighty, full-length album, Dismal Epiphany. If you’re listening to them back to back, it feels like one thrilling rollercoaster ride. It’s a cauldron full of technical riffs, neoclassical shredding, exotic scales, clever harmonies, groovy headbangers and lethal high-speed blasts. That’s what BURN DOWN EDEN is all about!”
