Bio:
AMARANTHE to release MASSIVE ADDICTIVE; new album on October 21!(New York, NY): Gothenburg, Sweden's AMARANTHE, known for fusing melodic metal with elements of EDM, will release their third album MASSIVE ADDICTIVE viaSpinefarm Records on October 21. MASSIVE ADDICTIVE is true to its title. The band's signature, larger-than-life sound, comprised of kinetic riffing, pulsating beats and celestial, melodic choruses, remains in tact, but the album finds AMARANTHE continuing to explore a range of dynamics and with a willingness to push themselves even further.The songs that populate MASSIVE ADDICTIVE are so incredibly catchy that they will take up residency in your brain for hours after you've turned the music off and you will find yourself humming the melodies or singing the choruses long after you've stopped listening to them. MASSIVE ADDICTIVE is that memorably and that catchy.MASSIVE ADDICTIVE was tracked at Hansen Studios in Ribe, Denmark with the sound sorcerer Jacob Hansen (Volbeat, Epica) at the helm.The 12-song album is a flawlessly executed clinic of masterfully and carefully crafted European metal, boasting Olof Mörck's surgically precise riffs and soaring solos alongside Morten Løwe Sørensen's rhythmic thrust and Johan Andreassen's booming low-frequency assault. Elize Ryd's vocals are as emotive and empowering as ever, filling the room, while Jake E's melodic vocals are an outpouring of power. New screamer Henrik Englund Wilhelmsson puts his stamp on the material, as well.The sound is both massive and addictive, from the unforgettable, driving sounds of "Drop Dead Cynical" to the anthemic title track to the stadium-sized soar of "Digital World" to the emotionally haunting power semi-ballad "True." MASSIVE ADDICTIVEis an exercise in dynamics and is one that refuses to play by any sort of genre-specific, prescribed rules."We have lived and breathed this album every hour and every day the last year, and to know that this music is about to reach everyone's ears is beyond exciting," guitarist Mörck enthused about MASSIVE ADDICTIVE. "Following the first leg of The Nexus World Tour, we sat down and agreed that we wanted the next album to be really fresh, new and even to raise a few eyebrows, all while retaining our signature sound."He continued, "MASSIVE ADDICTIVE is in every way that huge leap forward we wanted to achieve and the album definitely contain our strongest song writing to date. The press often asks us to 'describe the album with three words'; this time, the answer is simple - it's MASSIVE, it's ADDICTIVE, and most importantly, it's AMARANTHE!"
Album:
Fifteen years into a career that has seen the band become one of metal's most ruthlessly individual and uplifting acts, selling out venues and tours across Europe and the US, Amaranthe is about to make a most definitive and revealing move. Three years on from the widely acclaimed "Manifest", which hit top-20 charts internationally and has amassed over 130 million streams, Sweden's masters of thunderous, melodic futurism are about to unveil "The Catalyst". Twelve songs deep and almost overburdened with lethal hooks and genre-blending ingenuity, "The Catalyst" is a snapshot of a band hitting a new level of collective power. From the electronic pulse and irresistible forward momentum of "Re-Vision" onwards, Amaranthe has given its sound a fearless upgrade. The band members have incorporated yet more enthralling elements into their trademark sound. Most notably, Amaranthe has embraced the evocative might of orchestral grandeur for the first time, and it suits them perfectly. Dedicated to notions of transformation and revelation, it goes deeper than any previous album. "Sometimes there are watershed moments in your life and they can change everything", Olof Mörck explains. "It's about a realisation. It could be a relationship, a vacation or a near-death experience, but it's a catalyst that really wakes you up and makes you think 'shit, what have I been doing'. All the songs are about this, but in totally different ways. It's all about change." One major contributory factor to this impressive forward stride is the arrival of Amaranthe's latest new member. Slotting in neatly alongside Elize Ryd and Nils Molin is the band's new master of growls, Mikael Sehlin, who can be heard reveling in his new creative partnerships on "The Catalyst".
