NEW NOISE : SUN OF THE DYING - The Earth Is Silent

OVERVIEW
SUN OF THE DYING - The Earth Is Silent


Spanish death/doom metallers SUN OF THE DYING are back with their sophomore album, "The Earth Is Silent". A spiritual successor to their debut album, this record follows its footsteps in a more emotional, atmospheric, yet harder way.
In the vein of the British and Nordic doom/death metal tradition, and drawing inspiration by classic mythology and the works of Dylan Thomas, H.P. Lovecraft and Cormac McCarthy, the seven songs of this release take the listener on a epic journey through despair and rage, from the thunderous skies to the abyssal depths of the ocean.
With "The Earth Is Silent", SUN OF THE DYING have raised a monument to endings: the end of hope, of love, of life, and of the Earth itself. And in the aftermath, there is only silence.

BIOGRAPHY
SUN OF THE DYING is a Spanish Doom/Death Metal band, with ist roots set on 90’s music as My Dying Bride, Paradise Lost or Anathema, and adding a more modern sound taken from Shape of Despair, Ahab or Swallow the Sun.
They started in 2013 as a side project between Casuso and Lavín beside their main bands (Apocynthion and CrystalMoors). In 2015 the band was completed and started recording their first album. After some changes they got a stable line up in 2017 that remains until today. In April of that year the debut 'The Roar of the Furious Sea’ was released by
the mexican label Throats Productions, recorded and mixed by the band members and mastered by Fede Pajaro.  During the following months SUN OF THE DYING did several shows with bands like Ocelon, ADE, Trono de Sangre, Malammär, Atrexial or Womb.
They also took part in the 2018 Spanish W.O.A Metal Battle and reached the finals, surprising with its different approach to Doom Metal and intense live performance.
