According to Blabbermouth...

NIGHTINGALE — the Swedish band featuring acclaimed musician/producer
Dan Swanö and his brother Dag — entered the studio this past Monday (July 8) to begin recording its first album in seven years. The group states: "It's gonna be worth the wait "

NIGHTINGALE is:

* Dan Swanö (WITHERSCAPE, EDGE OF SANITY) - Vocals, Guitar
* Dag Swanö (DAG SWANÖ'S ÄVENTYR) - Guitar, Vocals, Keyboards
* Erik Oskarsson (DAG SWANÖ'S ÄVENTYR) - Bass, Backing Vocals
* Tom Björn (MEMORY GARDEN) - Drums

NIGHTINGALE's sixth album, "White Darkness", was released in June 2007 via Black Mark. The CD was recorded at a big theater, with many of the songs having been tracked as live as can be in the studio, giving them that little extra spark of life often missing in modern productions.

The term "White Darkness" is an expression that lead singer and lyricist Dan Swanö used to describe the state of mind he was in during the aftermath of his divorce. Most of his lyrics on this album are diaries from months of soul searching. During this dark period Dan did not write much music, so his older brother Dag Swanö (formerly known as Tom Nouga) stepped in, armed to his teeth with killer songs from the past and the present.
