Dawn of Ashes : Infecting the Scars - CD
Ref: 24738
Dawn of Ashes unleashes a relentless storm with their new album “Infecting the Scars” - marking a triumphant return to the Aggrotech roots with punishing beats, savage synths, and unfiltered aggression. Dawn Of Ashes was founded in Los Angeles by Kristof Bathory at the turn of the millennium, the group moniker he chose suggesting ‘the beginning of the end'. Emerging from the industrial and aggrotech genres before expanding into the blackened metal and extreme industrial scenes, Bathory and his band have been a relentless force ever since, evolving and redefining the boundaries of extreme music for over two decades. The brand new album sees DOA return to its aggrotech roots while pushing forward with a new level of intensity and maturity. It marks a rebirth, fusing the raw, unfiltered aggression of the past with a refined and evolved sound. Lyrically and sonically, it sees them reach a level where the songs are no longer merely anthems of destruction, but rather an exploration of psychological horror, inner demons and the scars left behind by life's most brutal moments. The album also features a hot collaboration with ALIEN VAMPIRES on one song! Embodying this evolution, the track ‘Hypertensive Crisis' was issued ahead of the album and was described by Bathory as "a deliberate attempt to recapture the nostalgia of our early era while seamlessly blending it with fresh, modern elements. It showcases a fully realised version of our classic sound, reimagined with a new intensity and depth.” A recent relocation to Denmark has also seen Dawn Of Ashes set to expand its reach, bringing the group's visceral live performances to new territories. European tour dates are currently in the works alongside planned shows in South America, promising a global assault of chaos and horror. “Full of dark songs and deathly imagery, brought to life by demonic vocals. It's vampiric, it's black metal, it's post-industrial witchcraft, driven by an infectious electronic groove. Very moreish indeed” DEVOLUTION MAGAZINE (UK) “Past meets future on an electronic industrial metal delight that will get you on the dance floor. Each of the ten tracks can certainly hit the clubs like a bomb” ORKUS (DE) Tracks : 01 Intro - Made in Hell [04:00] 02 Infecting the Scars [04:58] 03 Bone Saw (feat.
