There are plenty of reasons why musicians succeed in getting the optimum out of their creative talent. In case of Swedish melodic metal act Dynazty and their forthcoming, eighth studio album, “Final Advent”, the extra time forced upon them by the pandemic may have been one important factor, but it would be short-sighted to attribute their impressive new material solely to the time they had to write, record and produce their new offering. At the end of the day, Dynazty appears as an ambitious band who has invested all their talent and experience, combined with a healthy dose of enthusiasm, ambition and tremendous compositional and musical expertise.
Fans have been patiently awaiting the band’s upcoming magnum opus, but this summer, your wait is finally over! “Final Advent” has been announced for a release on August 26th, 2022, through AFM Records, and will mark the band’s most cohesive, imaginative, complex and at the same time most homogeneous album to date in Dynazty’s 15-year career. But give ear, as today the Stockholm-based quintet released a third album single taken of their “Final Advent”! A dreamy and epic tale of lust and loss packed within a crescendo of musical arrangements and performances – ”Yours” represents a stand out and centerpiece track on the new Dynazty album.
Says vocalist Nils Molin: “Call it a power ballad if you will, but to me it’s simply a powerful song, albeit in a slower and more dynamic way than most our stuff. One of my favourites!”
The accompanying, haunting music video was made by renowned video-producers of Grupa13, you can now watch the new Dynazty video for ”Yours” below.
Ever since their formation in 2007, Dynazty’s career may read like a fairytale, but is the result of a hard-working, ambitious band. Countless shows all over Europe with acts alike Sabaton, Battle Beast or Pain to name just a few, an incredibly successful back catalogue of seven chart-breaking albums, millions of streams on digital platforms prove, Dynazty not only captures the Zeitgeist of modern melodic metal, but with the “Final Advent” the band will even double-down all expectations and success!
The album was produced by the band themselves and primarily recorded in Love Magnusson’s studio in Stockholm, drums were recorded in Denmark at the Hansen Studios (owned by sound icon Jacob Hansen, who also mixed and mastered the album). The cover artwork was designed by Brazilian artist Gustavo Sazes, who has also worked for British Lion (feat. Iron Maiden bassist Steve Harris), Kamelot, Firewind, Iced Earth and Nils Molin’s second band, Amaranthe. Molin comments: “It’s meant to be ambiguous, just like the album title ‘Final Advent’. Advent means the arrival of an important thing or person”.
