Dawn of Solace

When Before the Dawn (short: BTD) was preparing to record 3rd album ”The GhostTuomas Saukkonen realized that he had over 30 songs written. First idea was to simply make an double album for BTD but some of the material written started to sound too slow and dark for BTD style and Tuomas Saukkonen decided to push that darker direction a bit further and form a completely new project called Dawn of Solace (short: DOS). Debut album ”The Darkness” came out in May 2006 featuring BTD vocalist Lars Eikind on clean vocals and Jukka Salovaara on guest vocals and solo guitar. After the release several issues with label forced the project to go on a hiatus for undefined amount of time.

It took 13 years and 14 written albums until an idea of a song came up that ignite the flame to bring Dawn of Solace back from over a decade of rest. Time took care of the issues with labels and legally band was free but 13 years had not taken away the crushing sadness that inspired the debut. “Waves” came out to be a honest picture of the current times for its writer. Grey, heavy and dark but still sorrow carrying certain beauty and strength. Already while recording “Waves” it was clear that Dawn of Solace was brought back to life and this time without the passing of another decade between the albums, since the third full-length record, titled “Flames Of Perdition“, was released in January 2022.

King Satan

Founded in late 2015, this genre-fluid group is the brainchild of enigmatic artist Mr. King Aleister Satan (Henget, Saturnian Mist), which has evolved from its electro-aggrotech origins into a full-throttle industrial metal band over the years. The act’s vision of extreme metal brings forth an anarchistic blend of carnivalesque artistry, absurdist dark comedy, occult intrigue, and in-depth philosophical ponderings, served in an intoxicating blend of rocking dance beats, thought-provoking lyrics, mesmerizing melodies, and addictive hooks the band themselves have titled as ‘death metal disco’.

A fusion fit for both dance floors and mosh pits. With all these elements, the band defies conventions and embraces controversy the way which should not really make much sense on paper – and yet, it has consistently helped to create more and more buzz for the band wherever they go.

Despite an already existing catalogue of over fifteen full-length albums, the seasoned and battle-hardened veterans of Night Crowned are still as hungry as a ravenous monster to create the horrifically melodically charged, blackened music of the dead. There will be no warning. No antidote and no cure. First you will feel nauseous, then your body will be covered in black boils and finally both your mind and your matter will have been thoroughly infected by the blight. When the time comes, the nightly coronation will take place.
