Finnish melodic doomsters HANGING GARDEN release second single from “Into That Good Night”!

After having released the title track off their forthcoming new album “Into That Good Night”, HANGING GARDEN reveal more new music with the track ‘Rain’ off the forthcoming effort!

“The music video for the track ‘Rain’ was shot at the Backwoods cabin by Toni Toivonen and Nino Hynninen, and edited and colour graded by Toni Toivonen. The video forms a cohesive entity together with the previous video for ‘Into That Good Night’, and strives to bring the albums themes and atmospheres into picture.

Along with publishing ”Rain’, we would officially like to welcome Riikka Hatakka as a permanent part of our line-up. She has lent her voice and skill with vocal arrangement on previous releases, and after the recordings of “Into That Good Night” were finished, we decided to ask her to join us, as her input has been an integral part of Hanging Garden’s sound for a good while now. Riikka’s joining broadens our spectrum of vocal diversity even further on future releases.”
comments the band.

The second song of the album perfectly symbolizes the musicality and aesthetics of HANGING GARDEN: ‘Fear, Longing, Hope And The Night’. The band from Helsinki plays with a certain melancholy, disillusionment and gloomy structures, as well as with restrained optimism, harmonies and an overall (dark) warmth.

The cautiously developed atmospheres are central to the group’s new album “Into That Good Night”. During the time of their existence, HANGING GARDEN, which were founded in 2004, have developed a graceful and universal sound between dark rock and doomy metal, which works through the transported moods, which often resonate subliminally.

Following “At Every Door” (2013), “Blackout/Whiteout” (2015) and “I Am Become” (2017), “Into That Good Night” is HANGING GARDEN’s fourth album for German Lifeforce Records, the sixth of the Finns in total. Riikka Hatakka has become an official band member and naturally expands the possibilities with regard to vocal expression and variability.

Singer Toni Toivonen explains his main ideas for the lyrics of “Into That Good Night”, which, of course, are reflected in the music of the new HANGING GARDEN album as well:

“With the times being what they are, the collapse of modern civilization is beginning to look more plausible: mankind seems to be doing its best as a species in making our habitat inhabitable for ourselves.

Channeling the deep and numbing melancholy induced by our present reality, HANGING GARDEN’s new album “Into That Good Night” makes a journey to our near future, to a world where the aforementioned collapse has recently taken place. How would we survive? What would we hold dear, and what would lose its purpose?
The album portrays themes of loss, longing, death and hope through narratives and musings of nameless, fictive survivors in a world devoid of the safety brought by modern organized society, wealth or civilization – a future that doesn’t seem so distant anymore.”

HANGING GARDEN “Into That Good Night” – out November 15th, 2019!
