Melodic death metal legends Disarmonia Mundi are back! Announcing their highly anticipated new studio album “The Dormant Stranger” and unleashing the powerful new single “Crossroads to Eternity”!
Disarmonia Mundi, a name that throughout the years has become a synonym of melodic death metal, counting more than 30 million streams on Spotify alone, forging a legacy able to thrive despite long years of silence or the lack of live activity.
Today, almost a decade after the band’s latest album “Cold Inferno” (2015), fans can finally rejoice: the wait is officially over. On March 21st, 2025, Disarmonia Mundi will release their brand new studio album via Coroner Records, proving yet again why they are an indispensable part of melodic death metal. As with previous releases, Disarmonia Mundi are once again supported by Björn Strid (Soilwork), who lends his voice to various parts of the album, adding an extra portion of intensity and energy!
After having already released the new tracks “Oathbreaker” and “Adrift Among Insignificant Strangers””, the band follows up today with the intense single “Crossroads to Eternity”. Listen to the new single here.
Disarmonia Mundi about the song: “‘Crossroads to Eternity’ is an extremely lean and straightforward melodeath track, certainly influenced by classic metal both in terms of catchiness and song structure. While the pace remains sustained and tight the melodic lines define and characterize all the parts of the composition: great attention has been paid to the guitar work which remains dynamic and inspired throughout the entire duration of the track. There is a constant alternation between the aggressive voices of Claudio and Ettore’s more melodic ones, this dichotomy marks the rhythm of the verses until the culmination of the epic and melancholic refrain, another distinctive trademark of Disarmonia Mundi who have always been known for creating melodies which are both glorious and pervaded by sadness at the same time. The lyrics are influenced by the written testimonies of the trench soldiers who fought during the Great War”.
“The Dormant Stranger” was recorded and produced at The Metal House by Ettore Rigotti and will be released as CD digipak, as well as three limited editions: numbered red-marble vinyl, numbered cassette, and a USB flash drive version.
The album is available for pre-order here.
