NEWS - The mighty veterans Emmerhoff & Melancholy Babies is back with new album "The Dying Of The Light"
"The Dying Of The Light", its title taken from Dylan Thomas' iconic poem, contemplates and embraces the twilight of life, but also, in the spirit of the poem, fighting spirit and stubborn resistance to the inevitable.
Death will come, but until then we will create music and celebrate life.
October 2025 will see the release of the band's seventh studio album, recorded at Duper and Solslottet Studios in Bergen, produced by Iver Sandøy and Jørgen Træen..
The music reflects the somber thematic while also being vital and vigorous.
The range is wide, from delicate contemplation to powerful outbursts, strictly composed in one moment and loosely improvised in the next.
The Dying Of The Light
is dedicated to the memory of
Per Harald Ottesen
