Inner Wound Recordings are proud to announce the release of an LP edition of the latest Enbound album “The Blackened Heart”. The edition is strictly limited to 300 copies worldwide and the release date is set to May 5th.
“The Blackened Heart” has a nice mix of heavy and up tempo songs, all with their own strong and grasping melodies. Some songs has a more aggressive, modern metal tone like ‘Give Me Light’. A track like ‘Feel My Flame’ has classic metal influences, while ‘They Don’t Really Know’ beautifully combines sensibility with force. Enbound prove with “The Blackened Heart” that they can handle any angle of melodic metal. Like their debut, their characteristic powerful arrangements remain with fantastic and emotional vocals on top.
Jacob Hansen [Amaranthe, Volbeat, Primal Fear] was chosen to master the album, and awesomely did so. The Swedish famed photography and illustrator duo of Robert Elmengård and Niklas Lundberg created the spot on artwork. Layout was made by Stefan Heilemann [Kamelot, Epica, Rhapsody].
Guest appearances on the album includes the vocalist Linnéa Wikström [Kamelot, Therion] on ‘Falling’ and Mike LePond [Symphony X] is responsible for the first of two bass solos on ‘Feed My Flame’.
