Dawn Of Ashes return with all new single ‘Anhedonia’ ahead of new album

Dawn of Ashes
Out via Metropolis Records is “Anhedonia“, the all new single from the Los Angeles-based act Dawn Of Ashes. The band who formed in 2001 produces a hybrid of dark electro and metal and on this single founder and front man Kristof Bathory explores concepts of horror, anti-monotheistic religion, misanthropy and the negative aspects from emotional abuse.
Bathory: “This is a song based on the process behind losing hope from depression and sliding down into a hole where the only answer seems to be the end of living. Most humans have been in this place and the only saviour is yourself.”
The song is taken from the forthcoming album, “Reopening The Scars”, which is the band’s first full length for Metropolis Records since recently returning to their former label home. “It is a continuation from our previous album, ‘Scars Of The Broken’,” continues Bathory. “Each lyrical topic touches on the struggles of self-destructive behaviour. Pain and suffering dictated the writing process and created the sounds of emotional hell.”
