7 years after the release of "L’Empire des Sens", Ad Inferna is back with
a surprising new album that transcends musical limits, mixing influences from
electronic, industrial and gothic metal.
Composed by founding members of De Profundis and the musical mastermind behind Seth, Ad Inferna made a lasting impression back in 2002 with their unanimously praised debut album [Legacy
14/15 Punkte], not only in Europe but further afield in Russia and Japan.
Their return sees the band drop a new bomb, namely "Trance:N:dance", via Dreamcell11, the gothic / electro / EBM subsidiary of Italy’s Aural Music label.
8 tracks offer an original voyage through the mystical and frightening world of Ad Inferna where sorrow and melody collide with dramatic effect. Lyrics are mostly written in the French language, alternating in clear and black voices, but German and English both feature and help guide you to ecstasy, sensuality, tenderness and intimacy.
The continual thread on "Trance:N:dance" is the desire to dance and move, and that won’t leave you throughout this album – its format won’t fail to appeal to both electronic and metal aficionados in a club setting.
You are warned: do not try to label them - Ad has chosen to break down the barriers of musical genres to offer his own musical, visual and thematic style.
AD INFERNA BANNERS
"Hypnotizing guitar and synth driven tunes that are surely about to fill the floors. Those captivating female voices and spoken words are definitely my faves. I am quite familiar with the French language, but in fact I couldn't care less about what they are saying. It's all about the sound, it's all about imagination. :)" Stefan (BEBORN BETON)
"Power, Energy, Overdrive, and Beauty - it's all in the new album. And I'll take care of the destruction :-)" Kolja (SOMAN)
"Ad Inferna combines different styles like industrial, metal, gothic and electro to a completely new style. Their sound
is not comparable to any other band i've heard so far. They created their own genre - Intelligent, melodic and powerful music with
beautiful female vocals. They combine the future of industrial, the future of electro, the future of goth-metal to something we have
to find a new description for...." Vasi Vallis (REAPER, FROZEN PLASMA)
Of your new tracks on the player I like "Fade To Grey" most, but the others are not bad too. I like the vocals. Best of all of what I heard from your new album, I like "You As My Own Drug". But still better is your album "L'Empire Des Sens".
