Our Take

Dark Tranquillity's album "Character" is a refreshing departure from the cookie-cutter metalcore that saturates the market. The legendary Swedish band has once again delivered a masterclass in melodic death metal, effortlessly blending crushing riffs with hauntingly beautiful melodies.

The album kicks off with the blistering opener "The New Build," which sets the tone for what's to come. Tracks like "Lost to Apathy" and "The Endless Feed" showcase Dark Tranquillity's signature blend of aggression and melody, while songs like "One Thought" and "Mundane and Unreal" bring a more introspective side to the album.

Vocalist Mikael Stanne's growls are as powerful as ever, while the guitar work of Niklas Sundin and Martin Henriksson is nothing short of mesmerizing. The band's chemistry is undeniable, and it's clear that they have a deep understanding of their craft.

"Character" is a solid addition to Dark Tranquillity's already impressive discography, showcasing a band that continues to push boundaries and defy expectations. So, if you're in the mood for some quality melodic death metal with a touch of darkness and introspection, look no further than Dark Tranquillity's "Character." Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
