I DAwn of Ashes, band Harsh che credo un po' tutti conoscono almeno di nome nel bene e sopratutto nel male, hanno annunciato un cambio di direzione: dopo "aver conquistato la scena industrial"(loro testuali parole molto fantasiose), ora si accingono a "conquistare quella Metal": ergo cambio totale di Sound in nome del Melodic Death Metal, a loro dire.
Interessante soffermarsi sulle motivazioni di tale scelta:
Q: Why are you going Metal, we like the older sound more?
A: Unfortunately, The band has always been more into Metal. There is a way bigger market in the Metal scene, than the Industrial scene. The band always looks at what benefits their career and what direction is going to further their career. The Industrial scene isn't doing much for them and the record labels only provide minimum support for their bands. Thousands and thousands of fans contact Dawn of Ashes daily asking about future tours. Well, if there is no financial support than there is no tour. They are tired of making dance music and feel they have way more talent on the table to show their fans. One factor that the band always needs is brutality and Metal has always been more brutal than electronic music. Industrial concerts are tame compared to Metal events. Basically, there is more to offer for Dawn of Ashes with this new direction instead of hoping that the Industrial scene would get bigger.
Che tradotto in italiano significa: non facevamo soldi con l'EBM, proviamo con il Metal.
