FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
October 15th, 2024 – The long-awaited new album from Prague gothic cowboys, CATHEDRAL IN FLAMES titled Count To Nine, has finally been unveiled on the Musicraft label! The themes of the songs cover contemporary psychological problems and addictions, Lovecraftian mysticism and magical sexual practices.
The title, Count To Nine refers to both the number of songs and the mystical number “9”. Nine is the number of fulfilment, closure and completion. It also symbolizes the coming of age and the connection between dimensions and worlds on all levels.
The nine tracks were mixed by the legendary John Fryer (Fields of the Nephilim, Nine Inch Nails, Depeche Mode, Paradise Lost, Cradle Of Filth and more). The band has significantly tightened up their dark gothic rock on their third album, from the hypnotic and gothic rock purist track, “Dreaming In The Witch House” to the cowboy shuffle of “Pale Rider” to the dark pop of “Summertime.”
Vocalist Phil Lee Fall says of the album, “On Count To Nine we tried to cross boundaries. We ventured further and deeper than ever before. Musically, lyrically and sonically. It took us almost three years, but we are extremely happy with the result. Dark, mystical and monumental gothic rock for the 21st century.”
Gatsby adds: “Each track is heavily influenced by the mood and situations in which it was created. That’s why I make music, to get the emotion out. So the fact that it’s dark is probably natural. In a way, it’s a catharsis of the disgust and confusion we live in.”
Count To Nine is available on all major digital outlets worldwide including Spotify and Bandcamp.
