Danish doom/gothic metal combo Blazing Eternity has revealed the second single and the title track from its upcoming comeback album, A Certain End Of Everything, slated for release on 19 April through Mighty Music.
As one of Denmark's pioneer bands within the melodic doom/gothic metal genre, Blazing Eternity knows a thing or two about how to write a song about death, loss, and mourning - accompanied by weeping guitar riffs, heavy drums and raw vocals, topped with grandiose ending. "A Certain End Of Everything" proves it quite well, and so does the eerie and moody video that comes along with it.
Blazing Eternity was formed in Copenhagen, Denmark, in 1993 and released two successful demo tapes in 1996 and 1998, leading to a deal with German Prophecy Productions. It resulted in the two albums Times And Unknown Waters (2000) and A World To Drown In (2003) and performances at big festivals such as Roskilde Festival and Wave Gotik Treffen. After 2004, the band was not active anymore - until 2011/2012, Blazing Eternity was reformed for four concerts in Denmark and Germany.
After this, the band went into hiatus but secretly started working on new material in 2019 - leading to A Certain End Of Everything, mixed and mastered by Markus Stock Schwadorf (Empyrium, The Vision Bleak, Alcest, etc.), who also produced the first two albums by Blazing Eternity.
The new album consists of seven new tracks, including the already-released first single, "One Thousand Lights". The music has the well-known Blazing Eternity atmosphere and fingerprint - a melancholic, epic and atmospheric doom/gothic metal mix with weeping guitars and harsh vocals. The album is bleak and melancholic but with a certain beauty shining in the darkness - and with very personal lyrics dealing with death, depression, and personal tragedies. But with a gleam of hope in the end...
A Certain End Of Everything was written and arranged by original members Peter Mesnickow, Morten Kroll Lybecker and Lars Riis Korsholm - with additional synth arrangements by Flemming Kaspersen from electronic act Delayscape. Link

"It's a dark album. According to me, it's the darkest yet in our discography. It's also very suggestive, very introverted, less direct, and might be less friendly..." - Daniel Moilanen
"It's my kind of duty to provoke people and to make sure they feel something — to dance, cry, do whatever they feel. I do motivate them, because that's my purpose." - Chris Corner
"You can see it in social media, in the world, with the wars going on, and I think it's an appropriate title for an album." - Skinny Disco
"The speech that they hate is my speech, but my speech is not a hate speech. What can you do? You can just mirror/reflect them - hopefully, they will see how grotesque..." - Dero Goi
