New progressive rock anthem with hard-hitting choruses from Döda Havet

Döda Havet are back with a new single, released by Gaphals Records on July 31. "Levande eller död" is a song filled with electric guitars, hard-hitting choruses and personal lyrics - creating the perfect progressive rock anthem. The single is the band's third and last from their upcoming second album “Tid och rum” (Time and space).

"Levande eller död" features the heaviest sound yet amongst the singles, with electric guitars and drums leading up to the hard-hitting chorus. This sound is then combined with the synthesizers and personal, ponding lyrics that the band have made themselves known for - creating an intricate single where you notice something new each time you press repeat.

After the acclaimed, eponymous debut record and a handful of live gigs the band have stayed away from the stages and instead fully indulged in the creative process with the goal to make a strong sequel. “Tid och rum” is filled with everything from soft piano melodies, heavy guitars, synthesizers, slow tempo vocals and mysterious lyrics that brings the listener on a fulfilled journey of different emotions.

The band conveys their depiction of the reality we know mixed with their own experiences, on a framework of melancholy rock, which sometimes diverges into progressive parts. Just like the debut, the album is produced by the bands bass player Lawrence Mackrory. The album artwork is created by Prakash Khatri Chhetri.

"Levande eller död" will be available everywhere on July 31. “Tid och rum” is released by Gaphals Records on the 28th of August 2020 on Vinyl and Digital format.
