With eleven full-length records under their belts, Swedish melancholic metal unit KATATONIA don’t need to prove anything to anyone. Yet, it comes as no surprise that the outfit is about to impressively solidify their unique stance in the world of metal and beyond once more with their 12th album, the hauntingly beautiful ‘Sky Void of Stars’.
Today, the unit unveils the second single and ‘Sky Void of Stars’ album opener “Austerity”, along with a visually palpable video. The heartfelt offering crashes through the dark with memorable, mind-bending rhythms as it shifts with elaborate guitar riffs that perfectly showcase the musical expertise and experience of the band. Topped off by the dark, conjuring voice of Jonas Renkse and mesmerizing lyricism, the gloomy mood for the album is set. The song is now available via all digital service providers worldwide.
KATATONIA on “Austerity”:
“We hereby present you our new single and the opening track of ‘Sky Void of Stars’ – ‘Austerity’. Energetic and dark, stern and disenchanted. Enjoy.”
