Hear the sounds of Infernal Symphony 2.0 - A war against a virus, against the human race, and the most vicious assault on the senses imaginable from a retrowave/metal mashup!!

The sequel to the paradigm-shifting, highly acclaimed 'Vermillion' - our previous album - is at last standing 2 meters away from your doorstep!! Taste the next, finest iteration of Infernal Symphony to date!

After the overwhelming success of 'Pandemic', and numerous other previous victories, Infernal Symphony take the next evolutionary step towards synthetic annihilation and world domination with the natural successor to, and logical conclusion of, it's previous retrowave release. With so much at stake, and with so much praise heaped upon our most innovative work of the year, how would we seek to prove our dominance further?!

The answer? With this simple, yet effective approach - bigger, bolder, better. As with any good sequel, 'Draconian Warfare' the 3rd Infernal Symphony album in as many weeks, ramps up the drama, twists and highs of its predecessor and alleviates the lows. Darker sounds, ear-splitting sonics, more intricate and elaborate songcraft and a distinct increase in samples, mood and rhythmic flow all take the songs contained on this extra-large piece-de-resistance album to... the next level.

'Draconian Warfare' not only has ambition in spades, but killer tracks too - Opener 'Threatening Life' slowly builds to its crushing climax, while slower burns such as 'Squandered Lifelines' and 'Revolving Doors Of Emotion' prove that lightning can strike twice, and that the newly-crowned synthwave sound of Infernal Symphony is here to stay for the time being!

As 'Vermillion' was basically near perfection, these were measures needed to really showcase how we could take this musical approach even further. Bearing this in mind, each song was revised and iteratively improved with much more time, care and attention to make the most out of their sound. That's why this one took a little longer, but the difference is loud and clear, viciously audible and sounds like digital warfare concentrated into a fine hollow point.

Take a bow, and heed this call to arms... Your Draconian Country needs you!
