Iotunn - "Access All Worlds" (album stream)

Ο δίσκος των Iotunn "Access All Worlds"
Οι Iotunn μας έρχονται από την Δανία. Δημιουργήθηκαν πριν από έξι έτη και η μουσική τους πρόταση βρίσκεται στην καρδιά του progressive metal. Μουσική προοδευτική όχι με την τυπική (και τυποποιημένη) έννοια του όρου, αλλά την ουσιαστική.

Η μουσική τους πρόταση αποτελεί ένα αμάλγαμα από heavy, power, doom, black και death metal υπό ένα space rock πρίσμα (κυρίως λόγω της στιχουργικής θεματολογίας). Το ντεμπούτο τους ήταν το ep "The Wizard Falls" που κυκλοφόρησε το 2016. Ο πρώτος "ολοκληρωμένος" τους δίσκος φέρει τον τίτλο "Access All Worlds" και "βγήκε" στα τέλη Φεβρουαρίου. Πιθανά ο πρώτος "μεγάλος" δίσκος του 2021...

Δελτίο τύπου: «In early 2020 Jesper, Jens Nicolai and Bjørn set for Gothenburg, Sweden, where Fredrik Nordström (In Flames, At the Gates, Dimmu Borgir) mixed and mastered the album at Fredman Studios.

The result is Access All Worlds. Seven songs driven by creative curiosity and artistic honesty. Seven songs that initiate feelings and reflections. Access All Worlds is an epic; a cosmic and contemplative journey of energetic beauty and ferocity that reflects on human existence set in a storyline following daring space travelers.

The music is grounded in roaring, colorful drumming and crushing bass, while the sonic horizon is painted with a vast spectrum of guitar-driven expression, all overarched by narration through diverse vocals. "We wanted to make an epic, strong and atmospheric yet rocking record both musically and lyrically.

Jón came with the idea based on space travelers trying to find answers to the apocalypse which reflects many of the impressions, feelings and thoughts human life holds that originates from something vast, mysterious, chaotic and breathtakingly spectacular.

Everything just went berserk regarding the album theme. Is everything occurring in the lyrics just a dream? Is the album an allegory for any individual's chapters in life? Where does the album actually start and end? Stuff like that. We find that the album can be interpreted in various ways.

For us, the album is a truly exciting journey and we hope it will be for the listener as well on his or her own terms", says guitarist Jens Nicolai. Visually, "Access All Worlds" was completed by Nicole Kantor (design and layout) and Eliran Kantor (artwork) (Testament, Atheist, Hatebreed, Soufly, etc).»
