Cult Of Luna - In The Shadow Of Your Shadow

There's no limit to Cult of Luna's creative vision. Inspired by artists from hardcore, sludge metal, folk, art-rock and beyond, the Swedish luminaries are revered as one of the heaviest and most restless bands in alternative music.

In the Shadow of Your Shadow is another bold leap into the black: possibly the darkest release to bear their name, yet full of ideas that show they're still peerless 25 years since debuting. This, their 10th studio album, is a 71-minute monolith: a stark rejection of trends, convention and pandering to one's audience. Lyrically, it channels recent experiences of loss into a bleak set of songs.

Co-produced by Daniel Berglund and mixed by Magnus Lindberg, In the Shadow of Your Shadow is another evolutionary effort from a band who refuse to stand still. It's devastating and diverse, and it cements their place as trailblazers.
