With only 10 days to go until Sensory Records releases Haunter Of The Dark, awesome horror website, Bloody Disgusting, has premiered “Haunter of the Dark,” the title track of the album. Have a listen at this location!
“Musically speaking, “Haunter” is one of the heavier tracks on the album. It’s a little unpredictable and the band’s prog influences are apparent. There’s a nice balance of heavy guitar-based tracks and more mood-oriented cuts on the record.
Our last recording Misguided was a dark concept album and we wanted to continue on that path, so when we were looking at source material for the new album our singer, Will Severin, steered us to Lovecraft. He’s a big fan and had even produced a feature film adaptation of The Thing on the Doorstep that was released last year. Lovecraft’s dark themes appealed to us and we liked that Lovecraft’s “Haunter of the Dark” is told from a single perspective and has a sci-fi element to it. We stayed very true to the story and worked to instill a sense of Lovecraft-ian atmosphere to the recording with regard to both lyrics and music.”
