Symphonic metal project The Dark Element, featuring former Nightwish vocalist Anette Olzon and ex-Sonata Arctica guitarist Jani Liimatainen, have filmed a music video for the track ‘Not Your Monster’. Directed by Patric Ullaeus, the clip can be viewed below.
The Dark Element issue second full-length studio album Songs The Night Sings on November 8th, 2019 through Frontiers Music Srl.
Anette Olzon commented: “It’s a thrill that we’re releasing another album and for me it was even easier to record this one since me and Jani now know each other really well. For me, this album is bigger and better and I believe everyone who liked our debut will really like this one too. All I can say is that I already long to do another. Hep hep!”
Jani Liimatainen added: “I think the album is very heavy, but still hyper melodic, and this time we are even exploring new musical territories we didn’t on the previous album. Now that me and Anette have one album together under our belts, we have found the style we want to pursue and also the ideal way of working together. Given all this, I think it’s safe to say that with this album you’ll get even more of what made the
first album so good, only it’s bigger, better and bolder!”
Songs The Night Sings was produced by Jani Liimatainen.
