DRACONIAN release new song “Misantrophe River” off In Somnolent Ruin album

Swedish gothic doom metal band, Draconian, released their new song titled, “Misantrophe River,” the second single off their upcoming album titled In Somnolent Ruin, to be released on May 8th through Napalm Records. “Misantrophe River” hits listeners in true Draconian fashion with life’s hardest questions, exploring feelings of alienation when swimming against the stream and the search for direction in unfamiliar territory.

Ander Jacobsson stated about the song “‘Misanthrope River’ was the first song written for this album. The initial idea goes back to the early days of Under a Godless Veil, but it remained dormant until work on this record began. It’s an emotional gothic doom track- fairly minimalist, yet expansive in feel, with subtle touches that hint at post-metal and give the atmosphere a broader sense of depth. There’s a suggestion of something ancient and mysterious running through it. Although interactive, at its core, the song deals with separation and isolation in a world where the larger truth has been kept from you and how those feelings slowly turn into resentment. You’re pushing against the current wading upstream while doubting the way forward. In that struggle you’ll be grasping at straws for any sense of peace while unintentionally shutting out the one closest to you. Shot in the Faroe Islands, the video places its actors within vast, striking landscapes. It was directed by Gaui H., the same director behind ‘Cold Heavens’.”
