Dark Tranquillity announce “Skydancer” and “Of Chaos And Eternal Night” reissues

On September 26th, Dusktone will reissue on CD and digital format “Skydancer” (1993) and “Of Chaos And Eternal Night” (1995) by Dark Tranquillity after several years of absence from stores and digital platforms.

Released in 1993, “Skydancer” stands as a raw, foundational masterpiece of the genre. It’s an essential listen that captures the early, experimental spirit of the Gothenburg sound. While it lacks the crisp production of later albums Skydancer’s raw sound is part of its charm. It documents a moment when Swedish metal was a truly innovative force, fearlessly blending aggression with melody. The album serves as a crucial blueprint for the melodic death metal sound, alongside other seminal works from bands like In Flames and At the Gates. 

“Of Chaos and Eternal Night” is the EP standing between the debut “Skydancer” and the all-time masterpiece “The Gallery”. Published in 1995, this EP is again a crucial piece of the band’s history and an excellent example of the early Gothenburg sound and a preview of what was to come for Dark Tranquillity. 

Produced by Dusktone, with international distribution through Plastic Head and Season of Mist.

The reissues will be on the following physical formats:

“Skydancer” digipak CD

“Of Chaos And Eternal Night” digipak CD

“Skydancer + Of Chaos And Eternal Night” Wooden Boxset (digipak cds, enamel metal pin, two postcards, logo patch)
