Background information about 'Set The Dark On Fire'

After years of symphonic mastery, Edenbridge returns with their 12th studio masterpiece "Set The Dark On Fire" – and what a triumphant homecoming to Steamhammer Records this is! The Austrian quintet, led by the mesmerizing vocals of Sabine Edelsbacher and the compositional genius of Lanvall, has crafted something truly spectacular here. This isn't just another symphonic metal album; it's a bold evolution that sees the band embracing a notably harder edge while never abandoning the soaring melodies and orchestral grandeur that made them legends.

From the opening moments of "The Ghostship Diaries" to the epic four-part suite "Spark Of The Everflame," this album showcases Edenbridge at their most adventurous and confident. The production is absolutely crushing – that harder sound they've adopted gives tracks like "Where The Wild Things Are" and the title track "Set The Dark On Fire" an urgency that'll have you reaching for the volume knob. Yet when Sabine's ethereal voice soars over Lanvall's intricate arrangements on pieces like "Cosmic Embrace" and "Our Place Among The Stars," you're reminded why Edenbridge remains unmatched in the symphonic metal realm.
