Finnish melancholic death metal 5-piece Dead Serenity has released their debut album “When Worlds Turn to Gray”. On their music the band focuses on strong melodies. On lyrics they let the full scale of human emotions and behavior carry the music from an atmosphere to another – from sensibility to ecstasy and from distress to aggression.
”The album continues on the path we embarked on with our EP three years ago. In the years between, the world seems to have turned increasingly bleak, which can be heard in the lyrics as well as the soundscapes of the album. When Worlds Turn To Gray serves as a perfect accompaniment to the darkening autumn evenings when light slowly fades away”, the band describes
The album was recorded, mixed and mastered by Dead Serenity’s guitarist and main composer Toni Lind. Graphics and lyric videos created by Jonas Eriksson.
