On November 5th, MØL return with their second studio album, "DIORAMA". With the first singles already being released and the band having recently announced a new European tour for early 2022, the Danish blackgazers are perfectly prepared for a ferocious attack that will further cement their position as pioneers of the modern black metal scene. Recorded and mixed by Tue Madsen (Gojira, Meshuggah, Heaven Shall Burn), "DIORAMA" will unveil a captivating and aggressive sound even further and today, the band unleashes a music video for their single 'Vestige', that deals with gaslighting and our constant wish to free from reality with the cheapest means that the world offers to us. Watch the music video, captured and edited by Tobias Scavenius, here:
The band comments on the song and the video:
"Gaslighting takes on many forms and our willingness to subject ourselves to an illusion knows no boundaries. However rotten and hollow the core - we still buy into the idea of purchasable raptures, frail salvations, an escape from modern meaninglessness. The video juxtaposes a sunbathed, stylized expression with inspiration from Dario Argento’s colorspace of Susperia from 1977 with vivid colors and high contrasts. Unpleasant and unnerving, yet lavish and extravagant shots are interposed with the performance of the band, spiraling through daylight to nighttime in the vibrant interior of the Dome."

Inspired by bands like My Bloody Valentine, Slowdive, Drop Nineteens, Lantlôs and Alcest, MØL released their self-titled debut EP back in 2014. A year later they perfected their sound with their second EP "II", produced by Jacob Bredahl and released in 2015. Both EPs were well received and drove them on to do some emphatic live shows which were praised by press. In 2018, MØL made an international breakthrough signing with Holy Roar Records (UK) who released their debut album 'Jord' to critical acclaim. The record was recorded at Grapehouse Studios and mixed and mastered by Chris Kreutzfeldt. The album was also released as an instrumental version and in 2019, the band re-released their two first EPs, remastered for CD and vinyl.
