Hanging Garden - 'The Construct' (official lyric video)

Once we sought the call of the wild
Through the drudge and the dreariness
The safety of bright city lights
Their eternal flame in the night

Away from the seething construct
The gentle bars of the machine’s duress
Away from that industrial harmony
Disassemble the cogs and the gilded wheels

Now we seek shelter from the wild
Deep within the construct’s shade
Mere shadows, we seethe in the dark
Gnawing on the machine’s remains

Cold in spite of the last light
Deep is the night
Dark in spite of a myriad fires
Cold is the night


Hanging Garden για το τραγούδι - 'The Garden'
Μας έρχονται από την Φινλανδία και μας παρουσιάζονται κάπως έτσι: «While retaining roots in metal music, Hanging Garden possesses a versatile style of playing, drawing influence and inspiration from music and art».

Ο λόγος για τους Hanging Garden οι οποίοι έχουν κυκλοφορήσει οκτώ full length albums (συν έξι EPs, ένα demo και μπόλικα singles), με το όγδοο (και πλέον πρόσφατο) να φέρει τον τίτλο "The Garden" και να "βγαίνει" προ ημερών...

Δελτίο τύπου: «Hanging Garden formed in 2004, starting out as a heavy, doom-oriented project. Roughly two decades, seven albums and a couple of line-up shuffles later, the band shifted to a more melodic, contemporary sound, surrounded by a veil of melancholy.

The compositions are dark, atmospheric & emotional, and concomitantly lean towards open-minded and playful musicality. While entrenched in metal's doom, gothic and melodeath branches, Hanging Garden displays a versatile, many-layered style of playing, packs female & male vocals, and draws influence & inspiration from music and art, far and wide.

The new album - "The Garden" - dives deep into atmospheres both "tender and harsh, devilish and serene" and "embarks upon a journey to mankind's spiritual roots, contemplating the fragility of our technological society" - as poetically described by the band.

"There is a kind of energy in the songs that there wasn’t before," introspects Toni Hatakka of Hanging Garden. "A feel of hope to contrast our old friend the despair, a strong notion of action against the familiar melancholy, or maybe a light amidst the comfortable gloom."

"The Garden", the follow-up to "Skeleton Lake" (2021), was produced by Jussi Hämäläinen (vocals, guitars) and Jarno Hänninen. The album was mixed and mastered by the latter at D-studio (Beherit, Shape of Despair).

Cover artwork and new band photos are by Finnish artist Kalle Pyyhtinen. "The Garden" marks the return of new-old drummer Antti Ruokola, last seen in Hanging Garden seven years ago. Hanging Garden may appeal to fans of Swallow the Sun, Ghost Brigade, October Tide, Katatonia and Type 0 Negative.»
