The album ‘Sun God’ is composed of 9 tracks for over 55 minutes of playing time. It is a reflection about ancient old belief systems and how, nowadays, our beliefs are manipulated and dominated by hypnotic media, pseudo sciences, and placebo wisdom. The symbolism of the Sun God is used by the band in opposition to Satan and his temptations. While the latter one creates lies to make people’s souls empty, the Sun God represents the search for our inner Self, in intimate connection with Nature and the harmony it generates.

PARACRONA is a six-piece mainly from Norway. The composers are the Dutch-born singer RingoChristiaan Van Droffelaar and the lead guitarist Øystein Hansen. The songwriting takes inspiration from Burzum, Dimmu Borgir, Dissection, Morbid Angel, Mayhem, Dark Funeral, but also from Queen, Dreamtheater,Bay Area Thrash Metal, Classical Music, and Pop.
