Nordic Gothic band Cemetery Skyline have released new single “In Darkness” alongside a video that was directed by Patric Ullaeus (rEvolver Film Company) and filmed in a famous theater in Gothenburg. They previously released the single “Violent Storm.”

According to vocalist Mikael Stanne, the song “is about losing your sense of self in all kinds of misery and doubt”.

Santeri Kallio (keyboards) sheds light on the music:

I like to think that people feel the melody and the vibe with this one. It’s taking me back to a gothic disco in Düsseldorf in ’96. There is a lot of smoke, a lot of lights, good melodies, a nice and steady beat.

Markus Vanhala (guitar) adds:

After the first single, it shows a different side of goth. Goths like to dance…in darkness. Dancing with themselves or with myself, like Billy Idol once said, who had a valid point.

Cemetery Skyline will play their live premier at John Smith Rock Festival in Laukaa, Finland August 18-20, 2024.
