Downfall of Gaia announce new album ‘Ethic Of Radical Finitude’
DOWNFALL OF GAIA have announced a new album!
The new album, titled Ethic Of Radical Finitude, is the upcoming album from the German metallers and is scheduled to be released in February next year.
Tracking for the album was handled at Hidden Planet Studio, Berlin by Jan Oberg, and Backroom Studios in New Jersey by Kevin Antreassian of THE DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN. A handful of guests also contributed their time, including some faces familiar to longtime followers of the band – rejoined by guitarist Peter Wolff, one of the founding members of DOWNFALL OF GAIA, on Seduced By… and the drones on the songs The Grotesque Illusion Of Being and We Pursue The Serpent Of Time come courtesy of their former drummer Johannes Stoltenburg.
Speaking about the upcoming record, guitarist/vocalist Dominik Goncalves dos Reis says, “there are long atmospheric parts with enough time to breathe, enough time to unfold, and on the other side there are harsh and melodic blastbeats. Each song is some kind of journey, with emotional ups and downs. I guess everyone in life is trying to find this special ‘warm’ and safe place, their special place. To feel ‘home’, to feel ‘safe’, to feel satisfied. But maybe at some point you need to accept that it may never come, that you will never ‘arrive’. Everyone was absolutely focused on this record, and I think this is something you can really hear in every song. All of us are more than satisfied with the result, and we’re extremely looking forward to playing these songs live, and sharing it with the audience.”
Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have launched the first single from the upcoming record; titled As Our Bones Break To The Dance.
