Media type: CD

Swedish melodic death metal pioneers DARK TRANQUILLITY triumphantly return with Fiction in April 2007, a scorching effort that will undoubtedly add an exhilarating new chapter to the genre’s storied history. The album was mixed by the acclaimed Tue Madsen (Himsa, The Haunted) and encompasses all of the elements on which the band built their career: thought-provoking lyrics, shredding guitar work, captivating melodies and sheer brutality. This offering is perhaps best compared to a modern-day version of the group’s revered classics “The Gallery” and “The Mind’s I”, only with more intensity behind it. The blueprint of melodic metal is now at your fingertips.

Niklas Sundin (guitars) further describes his thoughts on the new album: “Tue Madsen did a fantastic job with the sound, and the result is diverse and exciting enough to satisfy even the most critical of listeners. The 10 songs are extremely varied and showcase all facets of the D.T. experience while breaking new ground as well as reviving some elements that haven't been featured in D.T. songs since the early years.”

DARK TRANQUILLITY holds the esteemed distinction as being one of the bands responsible for founding an entirely new genre of death metal in the early '90s, which came to be known as "The Gothenburg Sound" (along At The Gates and In Flames who’s singer Anders Fridйn was in the first D.T. line-up). Their previous album, “Character”, was hailed by critics and fans alike as the group's most savage and dynamic offering yet. They have solidified their fanbase through numerous tours alongside the likes of such genre titans as Killswitch Engage, Kreator, In Flames, Opeth and Soilwork, among others.

In late March 2007, DARK TRANQUILLITY kick off the touring cycle for Fiction with a massive co-headlining U.S. run with The Haunted and Into Eternity, revitalizing the genre they helped to create and further cementing their status as one of the scene’s most influential metal bands. The US tour will be followed by European summer festivals and a full length tour in autumn.
