WE SELL THE DEAD – THE BAND AROUND IN FLAMES’ NICLAS ENGELIN AND DRÖMRIKET’S JONAS SLÄTTUNG – RETURN WITH A BRAND NEW ALBUM!
“BLACK SLEEP” OUT FEBRUARY 21st, 2020 ON earMUSIC.
FIRST SINGLE AND VIDEO “ACROSS THE WATER” AVAILABLE NOW!
You may ask: what does the band name - We Sell The Dead - mean? Do they actually sell the dead? No, not literally. What they sell is more of an idea, a concept of death and the dead as being an integral part of the life of the living. All of that is packed into a riveting mix of dark and raw heavy metal that carries the catchiness of true hit material. Their sophomore album “Black Sleep” is going to be released on February 21st, 2020 via earMUSIC.
We Sell The Dead explain: “The term Black Sleep is, of course, a metaphor for death. ‘Eternal sleep’ is a somewhat more frequently used one, but we wanted an expression that sounded sinister and soft, both at the same time. Because it is a quite beautiful thing, this short life of ours. Blink and it’s over. And, most importantly, death is not the enemy. Indifference and life without meaning is. We are all going to die, eventually, all of us, sometime sooner or later. Life isn’t about sitting and waiting for that to happen, life is about taking what you’ve got and squeeze the most out of it.”
The band started in 2016 as an idea by Niclas Engelin (In Flames/Engel) and Jonas Slättung (Drömriket). They were quickly joined by their old friend Apollo Papathanasio - the frontman for Firewind and Spiritual Beggars - on vocals. Gas Lipstick, drummer for the first album and former member of HIM was replaced by Engel drummer Oscar Nilsson, due to logistical circumstances. In addition, Petter Olsson joins the band as a full-time member on keys and thereby perfectly rounds up the quintet.
“Black Sleep” is going to be released on February 21st, 2020 via earMUSIC as CD, LP and Digital.
