German metallers LUNAR SHADOW will release their third studio album, \u201cWish To Leave\u201d on March 19 via Cruz Del Sur Music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWish To Leave\u201d marks a change in direction for LUNAR SHADOW \u2014 after two well-received albums of heavy metal-meets-Scandinavian black metal, founder, guitarist and songwriter Max Birbaum had other, more experimental things in mind, namely, taking the band into indie\/post-punk territory:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt certainly sounds different and I suppose many people won’t like it,\u201d he says. \u201cI\u2019m really looking forward to the release; a little controversy in difficult times might just be what everyone needs right now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe guitars are taken back a little this time, the gain on our amps is lower, the bass is more prominent. No fast shredding, no wild riffing. But our pants are still tighter than they should be and our boots are pointy \u2014 it’s a good album to have a drink to and forget about your problems. Or make them worse\u2026 that depends.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The follow-up to 2019\u2019s \u201cThe Smokeless Fires\u201d was recorded from July to November 2020 in Leipzig under the careful eye of engineer\/producer Max Herrmann; V. Santura of DARK FORTRESS and TRIPTYKON fame is responsible for mastering. The artwork was created by renowned Russian artist Denis Forkas Kostromitin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Birbaum previously announced plans to cease all LUNAR SHADOW live activities after their now-postponed appearance at the 2020 Party.San Open Air festival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
