The title track from the forthcoming debut album from the Finnish atmospheric rock/metal band
EMBASSY OF SILENCE, entitled
"Euphorialight", was aired yesterday (Thursday, November 26) on the Finnish national radio,
Yle-X, on a program called
"Metalliliitto". You can now listen to the entire show for one week at
this location. (Note: The
EMBASSY OF SILENCE song comes on around the 30:50 mark.)
"Euphorialight" is scheduled for an early 2010 release via an as-yet-undetermined record label. The CD was recorded over the summer and fall at the
D-studio in Klaukkala, Finland under the supervision of
Jarno Hänninen, and was mastered at Sweden's
Cutting Room by
Björn Engelmann (
RAMMSTEIN,
DIMMU BORGIR). Guest musicians on the album include
Aapo Romu (
VANGUARD) on cello, and
Andy Koski Semmens (
EREPIA,
ESOTERIC,
PANTHEIST),
Juhani Palomäki (
COLOSSEUM) and
Teppo Tirkkonen (
THE PURIFICATION) on vocals.
According to a press release,
EMBASSY OF SILENCE is "an ambitious orchestra, assembled together by
Tero Kalliomäki (
SAATTUE), with the superb vocals of
Ines Lukkanen. The themes on the album vary from grim to uplifting, from mournful to enraged and from devious to passionate. Grandeur, ravishing beauty and the ability to surprise are definitely the strengths of
EMBASSY OF SILENCE, setting them apart from their competition. When
EMBASSY OF SILENCE performs live, they are full of energy, even flashy, not to forget humorous and epics."
