With their 12th studio album, “Set The Dark On Fire,” and their return to the Steamhammer/SPV label, Edenbridge explores new soundscapes without abandoning their tried-and-tested trademarks. This is primarily due to a significantly heavier basic sound, which harmonizes perfectly with the lyrical and visual direction of the Austrian quintet around singer Sabine Edelsbacher and composer/guitarist/keyboardist Lanvall.
The songs are characterized by harmonic and structural diversity. Powerful riffs and expansive guitar solos meet opulent, symphonic orchestral arrangements and unusual string instruments rarely used in metal, such as the dulcimer, swarmandal, monochord, and electric sitar. Sabine Edelsbacher’s warm, distinctive timbre lends the compositions a high level of recognition.
It was my greatest pleasure to have the awesome Lanvall & Sabine on the Interview to speak on Set The Dark On Fire, which is to be out today January 16. Check out the complete coverage on the below YouTube video.
