August 29, 2017
Romanian / German duo The Wake announce their debut album will be titled Earth's Necropolis and is scheduled to be released in collaboration with Loud Rage Music this Autumn.
The cover artwork for Earth's Necropolis is the work of well-known graphic artist Travis Smith who has done work for many established rock and metal bands, including Death, Devin Townsend, Katatonia, Nevermore, Opeth, Anathema, and King Diamond among others.
In wait of Earth's Necropolis' release, The Wake presents its first single, The Painter Of Voices, in form of a lyrics video, work of talented Romanian producer Razvan Raduta. The video is now online and streaming here:
The Wake's goal is to show the world that black metal returns with simplicity, but great passionate songwriting, proving a high intensity capable to reach big audiences again.
The Wake plays black metal having Dissection, Venom and Bathory as main inspiration, but their style reminds of some of the biggest Scandinavian names (Immortal, Darkthrone, Dark Funeral) and shows also a powerful melancholic side, which resembles the British premiere league of dark and depressive music (old Anathema, My Dying Bride, Cradle Of Filth).
Line-up:
