Band name and album title: Aerik Von with Shadow Empire

Genre: Dark Synth

Release date and label: The album will probably be released independently on Halloween, October 31st, 2023.

Other releases by the band: This will be the sixth album, and he has also released 18 singles, 13 EP's and a split and a demo.

How did I get to know the band: Metal Devastation Radio sent me the album and since I was somehow hooked on Dance with the Dead and this is supposed to sound similar, I decided to give it a chance.

What do I think of the record: As expected, all the music seems like it's from a soundtrack, but that's probably how it's supposed to be. With the mix of drums (whether electronic or normal), various synth tracks and the occasional guitar and bass, it sounds like a dark sci-fi film or game with a musical background. The music alone makes me want to play a game like this, so the album will definitely be in my stash of pen-and-paper background music.

If I had to pick one track, it would be 666TH STREET SUBWAY STATION, which creates an oppressive atmosphere with a monotonous rhythm, which the synths also contribute to. The song doesn't promise anything good, as if a raid squad could show up at this subway station at any time and attack the hero.

Conclusion: If you like soundtrack music, especially if it fits cyberpunk, you will get your money's worth here. As I said, I will definitely use the album for pen and paper one or two more times. Here you can find a foretaste:

Release Date: 10/31/23

FFO:Carpenter Brut, Dance With the Dead, Mega Drive

Location: Metro City 

We are excited to announce the release of a new dark synth album by a 25 year metal veteran who has played in 15 different bands. This album features the soundtrack to a cyberpunk murder mystery and is an intense and immersive listening experience. The artist has poured their heart and soul into this project, and we believe it will be well received by fans of both metal and synth music. Don't miss out on this unique and captivating album, now available for purchase.
