Mercury Circle - "The Gates Wide Open" (lyric video)
Ονομάζονται Mercury Circle, μας έρχονται από την πρωτεύουσα της Φινλανδίας, δημιουργήθηκαν προ τριετίας, αποτελούνται από μέλη γνωστών συγκροτημάτων (Children of Bodom, To/Die/For, Hanging Garden, Swallow the Sun κλπ) κι αποκαλούν την μουσική τους ως "new doom". Ο πρώτος "ολοκληρωμένος" τους δίσκος τιτλοφορείται "Killing Moons" κι έχει προγραμματισθεί να κυκλοφορήσει στις αρχές του επόμενου μήνα...
Δελτίο τύπου: «Mercury Circle, born as a brainchild in 2018 by Iconcrash’s and Swallow the Sun’s Jaani Peuhu, offers dark rock infused with electrifying synth wave and slow, epic doom. Truly a genre of its own, the band is establishing their very own kind of “New Doom” - think “Sisters Of Mercy and The Cult shaking hands with Depeche Mode and Cathedral”.
Within their own microcosm, the songs tell a story of an ever-repeating journey from painful departures to new beginnings, hope and promises echoing loss and regret. On August 14th, 2020 Mercury Circle released “The Dawn Of Vitriol”, the band’s first EP on Noble Demon (Digital) and The Vinyl Division (Vinyl + Digipack CD).
Their first full-length album is set for release on October 8th, 2021 on Noble Demon. You Open Up The Earth, the first single, was released on April 9th, followed by Black Mirrors on June 11th, 2021.»
Jaani Peuhu: «I wrote this song as the opening track of the album so it has this long hypnotic intro which introduces the atmosphere of the whole album. It puts you into a mind-travelling state and takes you on the journey that is 'Killing Moons'»
