Dawn Of Solace, the Finnish masters of melancholic metal, have unleashed their latest creation, Affliction Vortex. Released through Noble Demon, the album promises to solidify the band’s place at the forefront of the genre.
Formed in 2005 as Tuomas Saukkonen’s (Wolfheart, Before The Dawn) creative outlet, Dawn Of Solace quickly established itself with their debut album, The Darkness (2006). Despite a hiatus due to legal complications, the band’s loyal fanbase remained unwavering, keeping the flame alive. A triumphant return came in 2019 with the signing to Noble Demon. This partnership revitalized Dawn Of Solace, leading to two successful full-length albums – Waves (2020) and Flames Of Perdition (2022) – alongside an unplugged EP. In early 2024, the band entered the studio, determined to craft their most versatile album yet.
Affliction Vortex represents the culmination of this artistic evolution. The album promises a dark and immersive experience, delving deep into the heart of Finnish melancholy. It’s a sonic journey that will resonate with fans of atmospheric and emotionally charged metal.
To celebrate the album’s release, Dawn Of Solace have unveiled a lyric video for the track “Dream”.
Regarding the choice of “Dream” as a single, mastermind Tuomas Saukkonen comments: “Dream might not be the most typical DoS single song but the forward pushing pulse and the steady groove of the song made it impossible to ignore it as one of the obvious single choices. Like a train rushing through the night and full moon illuminating the view.”
Affliction Vortex is out now out via Noble Demon on CD, vinyl LP, in digital formats, and is available for purchase at this location.

“Inception”
“Murder”
“Fortress”
