Swedish melodic death/thrash metal frontrunners Darkane present new single “Quench My Hate”, introducing new vocalist Tobiasz Derengowski!
Swedish melodic death/thrash metal heavy weights, Darkane, return with their brand new single “Quench My Hate”, introducing their new vocalist Tobiasz Derengowski, who’s showing his full potential on the song!
The band states: “Darkane would like to welcome our new vocalist Tobiasz Derengowski to the band! We are very excited to start a new chapter together with Tobiasz as he is a very talented singer who can do the old Darkane songs very well while also contributing with his own style that will fit Darkane in an excellent way. He can be heard in bands such as Cronic, Halfpace and Crawl back to zero”.
Tobiasz did his first live appearance with Darkane on July 27th 2024 at Tullakroksfestivalen in Ängelholm, Sweden. He states that he is “very eager to take on the roll as the new Darkane singer, and while knowing it’s a bit of a challenge, he will do his best to do it right”.
The new track “Quench My Hate” was mixed and mastered by former Darkane frontman Lawrence Mackrory at Rorysound Studios. Lawrence has been handling the vocal duties for their debut album Rusted Angel (1999), The Sinister Supremacy (2013) and Inhuman Spirits (2022). The band comments: “He’s been a huge part of the Darkane history and the rest of the members would like to say a huge thank you! We wish him all the best with everything. He is a very talented vocalist, song writer, producer, engineer, mastering wizard and a very good friend. Much love from Peter, Christofer, Jörgen and Klas”
“Quench My Hate” is about the mental state of a person being left out or being used. How a human might feel after a break-up, or loss of some kind. But it also depicts the person who uses others for their own agenda, exploiting others. The lyrics were inspired by personal experience and the music itself offers a perfect blend of modern metal and the defining sound of Darkane. It is both relentlessly brutal, but also beautifully melodic!
