Madder Mortem - Old Eyes, New Heart LP NEW Colored Vinyl
Madder Mortem - Old Eyes, New Heart
NEW. SEALED.
Dark Essence Records
Reaching the end of a strenuous journey beset by turmoil and loss, Madder Mortem is finally ready with their 8th studio album āOld Eyes, New Heartā. Emerging five years after its predecessor "Marrow", the time in which āOld Eyes, New Heartā was made has been a troubled one for the Madders - and in the winter of 2023, Agnete and BPās dad Jakob passed away. Having always been a huge supporter of the band, Jakobās backing was essential in launching the band's recording career almost 30 years ago. Being an artist himself, Jakob had prepared two paintings especially for the album and with the adaptation and additional design by long-term Madder collaborator Costin Chioreanu, the cover artwork for āOld Eyes, New Heartā was completed. Even though Jakob didnāt live to see the finished album, he would have been immensely proud to see his art on the cover, and the album is dedicated to his memory.
Lyrically and musically, the album deals with hope, disappointment, and the ambivalence between them. It is music from old hearts and deep roots, with new eyes open to the unlimited possibilities of 12 notes, but always with the desire to write a good, honest song.
Recorded and produced by guitarist BP M. Kirkevaag, it shows one of Norwayās most interesting bands embracing a multitude of directions spanning from post-metal heaviness to soft Americana grooves and everything in between. Fronted by one of the genre's greatest and most unique voices, it is an album full of surprises, but at all times unmistakably Madder.
ā¢ For fans of: Neurosis, Cult of Luna, Solefald, Meshuggah
ā¢ Confirmed for Inferno Festival 2024.
