The release date of the of the new album „Gododdin“ by the British Heavy Metal Band MIDNIGHT FORCE, via IRON SHIELD RECORDS, on CD is October 25th, 2019.
With the sophomore album "Gododdin" we, Midnight Force, delve deeper into our vision of what Heavy Metal is and means.
Evolving from the foundations laid with the debut "Dunsinane" (2018), the themes of historical and phantastical tales are told again with a passion for detail and atmosphere. Classic metal influences are worked into a weave of our own favorite ways of songwriting and playing our favorite music. Influences thus range from Classic 70s heroes to 80s Rock and Metal pioneers without clinging to the past or paying too close a homage to our idols.
heroes to 80s Rock and Metal pioneers without clinging to the past or paying too close a hommage to our idols.
The topics on the album stretch from the crusades, Roman campaigns or cursed Ships to culminate in "Gododdin" a tale of the inhabitants of the Scottish east coast finding their demise in battle at the hands of the invading Angles.
Their lament is still sung (on our album)!
