Bio

Darknote, one of Iceland’s best kept secrets, is well on its way of leaving a permanent mark on the metal scene. Formed in 2004, the band has kept a relatively low profile since then, honing its craft to perfection. 2010 saw the release of its debut 7-song EP album Walk Into Your Nightmare, creating a huge buzz in the Icelandic metal scene and beyond.

Press

““Darknote is a five piece from Iceland that sounds absolutely nothing like Björk or Sigur Rós. In fact, they're a crushing modern metal band blending thrash, death, a touch of industrial noise and a love of progressive melody into a sound you won't want to resist. "The Sacrifice" the track they've chosen to feature, is an excellent, concise display of their skills - it's like an Arch Enemy vs. Machine Head cage match, with Diddi's demonic roar backed by thunderous riffage and apocalyptic drumming. But their secret weapons are a disc-ending trilogy of extended (six-minutes-plus) cuts. "Lavoera," "Mara's Dream" and "Bleed With Me," which throw clean vocals and a compostional ambition reminiscent of Opeth into the mix. Darknote aren't really shattering any paradigms, but they can write killer riffs - and, more importantly, songs. Somebody sign this band - get them off the frozen tundra and onto a tour bus. -Phil Freeman””
