Double vinyl LP pressing. Dutch chart-topping rock outfit Delain have spent the last several years increasingly taking the world by storm, one album at a time. Now, with five successful releases already under their belts, the heavy crossover icons reach new heights with their latest multi-faceted dystopian masterpiece, Apocalypse & Chill. On Apocalypse & Chill, Delain leave all stereotypes and preconceived notions in the dust - exploring themes of impending doom and human indifference - making this their boldest, most daring and undeniable offering yet. While it doesn't stray too far from the band's established sound overall, Apocalypse & Chill is a refresher - carefully yet powerfully weaving violent riffs, synth heavy soundscapes and fully orchestrated compositions with vocalist Charlotte Wessels' unmatched vocal potency.
