News : The Eternal's 'Kartika' out now!

By on November 10, 2008

Melbourne Doom/Goth band and current Metal Obsession feature band (Nov 2008) The Eternal have just released their third studio album titled ‘Kartika’.

The album, seen as possibly their most diverse and ambitious album to date, offers lush vocal harmonies and carefully detailed arrangements. ‘Kartika’ takes the listener through varied soundscapes, from the emotive ‘Brighter Day’ and ‘Walk Beside You’ to the eastern influenced epic ‘Blood’. Catchy, melodic, dark and beautiful, The Eternal have not sat safely behind the sound created on their previous albums, and inturn have managed to push forward and break new ground.

Guests on the album include Duncan Patterson (ex-Anathema, Antimatter and Íon) on Mandolin, Nicholas Albanis (Dandelion Wine) on Hammered Dulcimer and the amazing voice of Russian songstress Emily A. Saaen to name a few. ’Kartika’ was produced between December 2007 and May 2008 , recorded at several studios in Australia including Mixmasters Studios, Adelaide and Palm Studios in Melbourne. It was mixed in Tallinn, Estonia by Endel Rivers at Palm Studios II and mastered at the renowned Crystal Mastering, Melbourne, Australia by John Ruberto.
