CRONIAN- Press release

[Øystein G. Brun]

Indie Recordings is proud to announce the world class avant-garde metal act - CRONIAN.



CRONIAN is a project by Borknagar’s main songwriter/guitarist Øystein G. Brun and Vintersorg and as fans of both musicians and their respective bands it’s an honour for us at Indie Recordings to get to work on this amazing band. They made a serious impact on the scene with their 2006 debut “Terra” and their second album is now settled and ready for take off.



All the material is recorded at the band’s respective studios and produced by the band in order to keep the artistic authenticity. But contrary to the debut, the band this time around decided to go to a professional studio(Ballerina Audio, Sweden) to mix and master the album. And that decision paid off big time. The album comes with a crystal- clean sound yet the production is aggressive and mighty with a unique overall atmosphere. The new album will represent a musical boost of another world. A musical expedition that will challenge as well as please the listeners that dares to follow the band on their journey!

Attached is the front cover for their upcoming release and a press pic.



The album title for the new album is “ENTERPRISE” and is due to be released on October 27th



Tracking list as follows:



Diamond Skies
Arcades
Nine Waves
Project Hibernation
Cirque
Deportation
Moving Panorama
The Encounter
End(durance)- Part II
.



In a press statement the band comments the signing and the upcoming album:



Being friends and associates of INDIE RECORDINGS for years, we are firmly sure that this cooperation will bring the CRONIAN expedition to new boundaries, even beyond boundaries. This second CRONIAN album feels like a quantum leap for our band's musical evolvement and even for us as musicians. We are genuinely proud to finally get this album out to all the genuine music lovers around the globe. We really believe that this album offers something really unique in terms of atmosphere combined with agression, something nobody has done before!

Hmm, even though Terra never really caught me, I could sure hear that it was a good album. I'll buy this one too, and see if it speaks to me a bit more.

[FUBAR]

I thought the debut was incredible, I'm sure this will be quality aswell. It looks like the band has a abandoned the arctic thing. I wonder what this album is about lyrically.

 

[KRaEzTaIuRmED]

About time!

 

[Vampyrian]

Awesome news! Very much looking forward to this. Should really dig up my copy of Terra and give it a spin or two, haven't listened to it in aaaaages.:S

Cover looks pretty damn good.

It is a great cover. I like the colors on it especially. I'm looking forward to this.

And Mr. V looks strange with a crew cut!

 

[Azzor1911]

hmm but do they really have to market it as the "soundtrack of a future apocalypse"..?
that sounds a little cheesy, unless they're trying to rip off Red Harvest.

Same here, good idea!

Indeed , I'm getting sick of all these bands and their apocalypse stuff.


Anyway, I'm really looking forward to this!

Congratulations Øystein and Mr.V!

 

[Zephyrus]

Terra had one good song. I dunno...

 

[karpsmom]

This is so exciting and unexpected!! I can't wait!! I loved Terra and the production on the new album is gonna rock!

 

[Doomtroll]

This makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

It's called advertising, you're not going to say "Well sure this album now, it's good stuff and you'll like if you listen to metal".

 

[Qu Appelle]

"THE SOUNDTRACK OF A FUTURE PETTING ZOO FEATURING BUNNIES AND SHEEP" just doesn't have the same ominous tone to it. Though goats would be acceptable. As goats are metal.

Apocalypse, schmocalypse - better it be heralded in with Cronian then, rather than Madonna or John Tesh.

 

[SiMuLaCrUm]

Haven't listened to Cronian yet. Will soon.

Terra had one good song. I dunno...

And you have a site dedicated to CD reviews? Wow...

 

[Det Som Engang Var]

Zephyrus is correct, Terra was mediocre at best.
