SYLVANIA: Announce Album Details for Forthcoming "Purgatorium."
May 17, 2023
Sylvania establish themselves as an unstoppable force in symphonic and power metal, and with "Purgatorium" they will maintain and elevate their compositional identity, taking listeners on an epic journey through intricate and captivating soundscapes.
We asked Sylvania what this cover artwork designed by Joel Marco (JM Design) represents and how they would define the sound of this new album:
"Purgatorium is a conceptual album that tells us the story of a person who, after suffering an accident, is trapped in a fantastic place that acts as a limbo between life and death: a purgatory where lost souls go. In this place, that person must overcome some adventures while reviewing scenes of a whole insipid and lacking life, to determine if finally leaves the world of the living or if decides to fight and continue living".
"With "Purgatorium" the band tries to maintain and improve their compositional identity, based on the combination of careful melodic elaborations with an increasingly forceful sound and orchestrations that are strongly present. This new album will stand out for including fresher compositions with more modern symphonic metal and power metal influences that will surely please fans and newcomers alike".
