Let Your Focus Shift | Dark Tranquillity - Where Death Is Most Alive (DVD-Trailer)

Share






November 17, Dark Tranquillity will be releasing a two disc DVD/CD box set. One disc will showcase the band’s live performances, while the other will be a documentary taking the view on a journey through 20 years of Dark Tranquillity complete with video recordings of their first shows. The band commented :

The DVD will also mark the premiere of the "Misery's Crown" promo video, shot earlier this year by Roger Johansson and Vasara Films. All our other promo clips from recent years are featured as well. 

Furthermore, we undertook some extensive detective research, raiding our old homes to dig up long forgotten VHS tapes from the archives. A surprisingly large amount of footage was found, most of which never even got spread through the tape trading network at the time. In total, the "Live Archive" portion of the DVD features 21 tracks with a strong emphasis on old ("Skydancer" and earlier) material including some real rarities. Most of these songs were only performed live a handful of times, as shows weren't that frequent back then. Two of them ("Soulbreed" and "The Dying Fragment Of An Elderly Dream") are actually the only D.T. songs that were 100% completed but never recorded properly in studio. Both were written in the autumn of 1991. 

To conclude - we're damn proud of this release, and more than sure that it will satisfy the high expectations of both old and new fans alike. Here's to the next 20 years!“ 

In other news the band began recording their 9th album in August, reportedly due out early 2010. A title for the album has not been decided as of yet.
