Swedish genre-blending power rockers DAMPF will release their second album, No Angels Alive, on August 23rd via Silver Lining Music. Led by singer/songwriter A-TRON (aka Martin Erikson - E-Type) and keyboardist/songwriter Beak, No Angels Alive is an all-in 10 song storytelling experience blending expansive yet tightly bound stylistic ingredients incorporating hard rock, thrash, melodic power metal and electronic edges. Recorded at Yard Street Studios (Solna, Sweden) and produced by Jona Tee, be gloriously warned: DAMPF’s second studio offering, No Angels Alive, is not, and never was conceived to be, for the faint of heart.
Completed by Bhéara (aka Olivia Thörn on vocals), Haderajja (aka David Wallin on drums - Hammerfall), Bahari (aka Pontus Egberg on bass - King Diamond, The Poodles), Skaeggyxa (aka Love Magnusson on guitar - Dynazty), Sha-Zam’s (aka Sam Söderlindh on guitar) and Arkoūda (aka Björn Åkesson, growl), DAMPF engage in a theatrical journey through the timeless historical corridors of human darkness and their opus, No Angels Alive, plays like a grand collective performance piece, with an innate sense of beautiful, catchy melody finding ample room and context alongside the overall brutality of DAMPF.
'Masquerade’, the first single from the album, is out now. With its catchy melodic sensibilities, the track balances how in one specific historical story - and today’s society - illusion can be deadly.
“The song explores the dark spirit and soul of Jacob Johan Anckarström, a disgruntled Swedish military officer whose anger and dissatisfaction with Swedish King Gustav III led him to attempt regicide at a Masquerade Ball before assassinating him at the Royal Stockholm Opera on March 16th, 1792. This happened 300 years ago, but the ‘evil eyes’ are still plotting in modern times: today’s ‘Masquerade’ is about keeping people in the dark, giving them bread, water, flour, and keeping them happy with what they see on the surface, which of course only allows darkness to flourish out of sight and in the shadows.” - Martin Erikson
No Angels Alive will be released on CD digipak, 12” gold and black splatter vinyl, digital formats and special D2C products and bundles. Available to pre-order from June 5th 2024 here: lnk.to/DAMPFNo...
