The plot thickens! CARACH ANGREN are presenting the second lyric video with a song taken from their forthcoming album 'This Is No Fairytale', which continues the dark tale started with 'There's No Place Like Home'. This fantastic clip for the track "Two Flies Flew into a Black Sugar Cobweb" has been created by amazing artist Costin Chioreanu once again and is exclusively streaming via these official media partners:

Rock Hard (DE)

The band comments: "As the release date of our fourth album is crawling closer, we once again teamed up with the extremely talented Costin Chioreanu to visually tell the next chapter in our horror story, namely 'Two Flies Flew Into A Black Sugar Cobweb'. While our opening track and its video introduced the terrifying atmosphere, this one will reveal key elements of the overall plot, full of twists and turns, all leading to a bitter place ahead..."

The artist adds: "This is the second piece of a puzzle", relates Costin Chioreanu. "It is a multimedia combination, which joins the band's particular way of writing music and poetry related to horror with my out of standards kind of animation. Lyric video or not, the result is exploring some new dimensions of the horror genre, having as well a smooth flavour of a b-side movie and some 70's magic. Accessing the subconscious might work better with less explicit visuals and animations, as there lies the real playground for horror, the source of all darkness..."

'This Is No Fairytale' was recorded by Patrick Damiani and CARACH ANGREN during June 2014. The album was mixed by Peter Tägtgren and mastered by Jonas Kjellgren and its release has been scheduled to the 23rd of February 2015. Pre-sale has alrady started on the Season of Mist shop.

CARACH ANGREN have previously unveiled the first clue to their pitch black story told on 'This Is No Fairytale' in the shape of a lyric video for the opening track 'There's No Place Like Home', which can be viewed here.

The band commented: "We are very proud to present to you this beautiful piece of horror visualizing our song 'There's No Place Like Home'. For this video we have worked together with the extremely talented Costin Chioreanu. He was able to visually reproduce the terrifying atmosphere that we aimed for. 'There Is No Place Like Home' is the opening track of our forthcoming album. We hope you will enjoy watching it... And remember... This Nightmare Was No Dream!"When cold sweat slowly trickles down your spine, goosebumps crawl over your skin and your heart skips a beat as fear grips your throat in a firm chokehold then you have entered the realm of horror. CARACH ANGREN set out to claim the throne of this dark domain with their fourth full-length 'This Is No Fairytale'. These Dutch masters of horror metal have honed their weapons to sharp perfection. Flamboyant orchestral madness contrasts eerily with the icy buzzing of black metal inspired riffs coalescing into haunting melodies. Fiercely rasping vocals and the mercilessly rattling drums whip a terror-filled storyline forward into the waiting darkness. CARACH ANGREN once again step into an even more sinister dimension than before and even surpass the war-ridden nightmares portrayed on previous album 'Where The Corpses Sink Forever'. The evil visitations began in the year 2004 with paranormal cases recorded on the demo 'The Chase Vault Tragedy'. Soon after the 'Ethereal Veiled Existence' EP (2005) gave a prelude to the full blown haunting at 'Lammendam' (2008), which was followed by a stormy journey onboard a cruel ghost vessel entitled 'Death Came Through A Phantom Ship' (2010). With each release CARACH ANGREN developed their unique baroque and unashamedly theatric style, which perfectly fits the cinematic horror concepts of the Dutch. Their eccentric and capturing live performances quickly gained them a large following in Europe with the US catching up in the wake of the release of 'Where The Corpses Sink Forever' in 2012. Now CARACH ANGREN are ready to unleash the demons again in a dark tale of devilish witchcraft: 'This Is No Fairytale' is bound to put a spell on you and will continue to haunt your stereo for a long time to come.
