NEWS: Veriteras seek comfort in the darkness…?

Seattle Washington Melodic Death Metal quartet Veriteras have offered up “Celestial Darkness” as the second single from their forthcoming album “The Dark Horizon“. Mixed and Mastered by Dan Swanö (Necrophobic, Opeth, Dark Funeral) at Unisound Studio in Germany, the album is the fourth record in all from the band who shamelessly cite influences in the Scandinavian Melodic Death Metal scene, from early In Flames to Dark Tranquillity and Kalmah and strive to write heavy songs with powerful and memorable melodies.

Santtu Winter comments: “The Dark Horizon really leans in on our old school melodic death metal roots, and as a result has a more blackened melodic death metal sound compared to our previous release, Shadow of Death. There’s more tremelo picking, more blast beats, but still holding on to a very melodic core. We’re very happy with how the album ended up, and we grew a ton through the process. The songwriting is more mature, the lyrics are stronger because Sean wrote most of them instead of me, the musicianship is better, and the mix is fantastic. We’re all super excited to be sharing this album with the world, and hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed making it!”
