On January 8, 2016 the fifth studio album by Cloudscape entitled Voice Of Reason will be released worldwide. The band describes the album to be another step forward but, also flirting with their early albums musically. The songs are a nice blend between straight forward, hard-hitting metal songs to more progressive and majestic tracks. Voice Of Reason was mixed and produced by Anders “Theo” Theander at RoastingHouse Studios. The artwork was once again created by Mattias Norén.
Cloudscape was formed in 2001 and they released their self-titled debut album in 2005. Over the years Cloudscape have played live at many well respected metal festivals all over Europe and built a great reputation of being an impressive live act. In early 2014 Cloudscape played a 3.5 weeks long European tour, visiting 17 cities which turned out to become a great, well-earned success for the Swedish group.
The songwriting for the fifth album entitled Voice Of Reason started in 2013. This time the band wanted to create songs that flirts a bit with their earlier albums but, at the same time entering new territories musically within the melodic metal genre. For the first time in the bands discography the band have a title track…Voice Of Reason. It’s a song in the more progressive vein with lots of dynamic, atmospheric moments mixed with crunchy and heavy parts…a song that resembles what Cloudscape have been and is about musically. Voice Of Reason was mixed and mastered at the RoastingHouse Studio One by producer & engineer Anders “Theo” Theander. Voice Of Reason was released in Europe on January 8, 2016 via Swedish metal label Dead End Exit Records (a division of RoastingHouse Music).
