For the first time since the reunion of the electropop trio from Germany, they released a long player with new songs. "Transition" bridges between the new wave style of Dusk to Dawn’s songs from the 90s and contemporary synth-pop with a touch of dark-rock.
The opener of the new
album, "Not this World", drops the minimalism of the earlier
days already. “Hailing Truth" also comes along with hymnic chords, real bass and
electric guitar. The title track is a purely synthetic instrumental
thunderstorm, and the last song, "Traces" conciliates with classic,
beautiful synth-pop.
A special feature is "Remains", created in 1995 as a demo that is still
unpublished today. In 2012, it was supposed to be the title track on the vinyl
LP of the same name (label: Atemporal Records, Spain), filled with re-mastered Dusk to
Dawn songs from the 90s (sold out, available as download). In the end, however, the band decided to rearrange
the track completely – and to release it now, 23 years after its creation, for
the first time.
Dusk to Dawn have signed with the renowned German independent label Echozone (other acts include Porn, !distain, In Good Faith or The Frozen Autumn). “Transition” was published as digital release by the end of January 2018.
