Iconic Melodic Death Metal pioneers, DARK TRANQUILLITY, reveal a new piece of their upcoming album, “Endtime Signals”, out on August 16th via Century Media Records. The second single is called “Unforgivable” and will appeal to all fans who crave a song that packs a punch, both musically and emotionally. It’s a high-energy and rapid, riff-laden track full of surprises, and true to DT’s signature sound.
The video for the new track came into being while the band was on tour: Shot during the band’s recent tours in Türkiye and Mexico, the video is a manifest of DARK TRANQUILLITY’s live energy and presence, and a dedication to their loyal fans all over the world.
Mikael Stanne comments: “Shot during our recent tours of Türkiye and Mexico, the ‘Unforgivable’ clip showcases the band in its true element. From the intense drums of Joakim Strandberg Nilsson to the thunderous bass of Christian Jansson, the song is propelled forward at a pace not heard from the band in many years. Ripping guitars hold the structure fast as the electronic elements further emphasize the urgency and desperation of the track. A fresh surge of creativity and renewed vigour sparked this song that lyrically draws strength from frustration and helplessness in the face of oppression.”
Notably, “Endtime Signals” not only marks the 13th studio album of the band, but also their tenth album collaboration with Century Media Records. Building on the success of previous releases such as “Atoma” (2016), which climbed up to #2 in the Swedish album charts, and “Moment” (2020), which earned the band a Swedish Grammis award, the band is set to continue to redefine and deliver a top-tier musical experience with “Endtime Signals”.
The album release date, August 16th, was strategically chosen: It is no coincidence that the album reveal collides with the infamous Summer Breeze in Dinkelsbühl, Germany and DARK TRANQUILLITY’s performance at the festival. As a special celebration for the reveal of their new album, the band will give a burning live performance, playing and partying into the release of “Endtime Signals” live on stage.
