LOVELORN DOLLS - Announces Release Of New Album, First Details Revealed

Belgium based female fronted alternative/dark/gothic/pop/rock band Lovelorn Dolls announced that their new album will be entitled Darker Ages and is set to be released on 9th February 2018 through Alfa Matrix Records. Darker Ages will be the third album for this female fronted band, it's a successor to in 2014 released Japanese Robot Invasion.
The band comments: "Noir and poignant, this new album is haunted by malevolent ghosts and is by far the darkest work of the band ever, sounding a bit like a revolted The Gathering having a jamming session with The Cure in their most depressive Pornography period... The tone is sombre, the guitar strings are sinister, the synths are lamenting and the beats are slow and heavy. And although we immediately recognize the typical "lovelorn" type of sound made of heavy guitar riffs, loud catchy melodies, up-paced synth sequences and Ladyhell's characteristic chameleon female vocals, the overall atmosphere is dense almost claustrophobic with the highly expressive female voice adding a dramatic touch to it by mixing depressive screams, spoken words and catchy but also oppressive choruses. We can't wait to share this new album with you!"
Fans of classic gothic rock will undoubtedly adore this album which is definitely revisiting the band's deepest artistic melancholic wave rock roots, while industrial metal lovers will also find their way through the harder and more upbeat songs like the previous single "Lament", the engaged "Psalms" or yet the dark pearl "Love Missile". Earlier this year Lovelorn Dolls released the first single, "Lament", taken out of the upcoming album and in the player below you can watch the video for it. Artwork for the album was created by Alyssa Artslover Art. Link
