Konvent announce new album ‘Call Down The Sun’

KONVENT have announced a new album!

Titled Call Down The Sun, the upcoming album from the Danish death/doom band is the follow-up to 2020’s Puritan Masochism, and is scheduled to be released in March this year, via Napalm Records.

The upcoming album was recorded and mixed by Lasse Ballade at Ballade Studios, Copenhagen and mastered by Brad Boatright at Audiosiege Studio.

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for the first song lifted from the upcoming album; Grains. Grains is about realizing the repetition of self-destructive patterns and not knowing how to break out of that cycle. It is the first KONVENT song containing Danish lyrics, as we felt like the song called for it,” vocalist Rikke comments. “In our search for a video producer, we found Martin Goltermann and we quickly shared the same vision for the video; atmospheric shots of sand and the sea reflecting the lyrics and a black-haired woman’s journey. As we were in a hurry, Julie had to step in and embody the part of the woman. After two days of shooting by the windy coast and in our cold rehearsal space, Martin wanted to go out again with Julie to get a few final shots. However, it had been snowing during the night and he managed to capture these beautiful shots of Julie gliding through the winter landscape. We loved it so much that we scrapped all the other footage.”
