 DARK
EMBRACE practice an amalgam of styles with which they manage
to create music that could be defined with the term “Dark
Metal”. Been born in Galicia in 2000, the band always
has progressed within the sounds of the dark towards a greater
musical maturity.
From 2000 to 2005 the band did some recordings such as “Raven’s
Blood” (rehearsal tape, 2001), “Bitter End”
(demo cd, 2003) and “Doomed by Life” (promo cd,
2004). In spite of bad productions, these works showed fine
the potential of the band.
For the recording of the first album, the band shut itself
away at Stage One Studio (Tankard, Rotting Christ, Graveworm,
etc...) together with Andy Classen (ex-Holy Moses) as producer.
Oscar Asunder (vocals, guitars and keyboards), Anaea (bass)
and Moritz Neuner (drums – also in Atrocity and Leave’s
Eyes) were the line-up that recorded “The Rebirth of
Darkness”.
Previously to the release of this album, DARK EMBRACE participated
in the itinerant Summer Blast Fest sharing stage with bands
such as To/Die/For or Beseech.
Actually the band is promoting “The Rebirth of Darkness”
which will be released by Armageddon Music (also home for
Holy Moses, Suidakra or MSG) with an exclusive pre-edition
for download through Hardy TV (www.hardy.tv). This pre-edition
has been supported with a tour in November 2006 with Agathodaimon
through Spain and Portugal. In March 2007, DARK EMBRACE were
chosen to support Sepultura in the only Spanish date of their
European tour; and a few months later, the band would support
Destruction and Amon Amarth in their Spanish shows.
Darkness is here again...
