Year: 2011
Media type: CD

Swiss precision metallars DREAMSHADE will release their new album, "What Silence Hides", in the U.K. on March 21 through Spinefarm Records. According to a press release, the CD "sits loosely under the 'melodic death metal' banner, a genre that continues to be developed by [DREAMSHADE's] high-profile labelmates CHILDREN OF BODOM. DREAMSHADE succeed in bringing modern elements to the traditions of the music — the result being a fresh blend of melodic death and progressive metal."

Mixed at Studio Fredman in Sweden and mastered by the legendary George Marino at Sterling Sound in New York, the 10 tracks featured on "What Silence Hides" are tightly arranged and expertly played, ranging from the genuinely melodic through to no-holds-barred, full-tilt fare. Strong haunting melodies, powerful high-tech rhythms, atmospheric, emotional keyboards, soaring guitar hooks and aggressive screams and howls, it's all here to be savored and enjoyed, the whole thing wrapped up in the powerful artwork of Colin Marks from Rain Song Design.
