COVENANT refuse to yield and persistently continue to bring the light in spite of all odds. Another shade of pale, the Morning Star rises once again. With their new EP "Lightbringer", COVENANT take one step back and two steps forward.
"Lightbringer" comes with five mixes, plus some completely unreleased material, and features contributions from NECRO FACILITY, one of Sweden's up-and-coming top new electronic acts.
The title track is the fruit of this inspiring collaboration, and the result is undeniably COVENANT but with a new flavor. A groovy, grinding and driven floor-filler with a melody that can't be exorcised once you've heard it. It comes in versions respectively designed by band members Eskil Simonsson, Daniel Myer and Joakim Montelius, each using their own particular sonic foundry and magic, and a stunning Radio Version by Oscar Holter of NECRO FACILITY. COVENANT never sounded this pure.
In addition the EP also contains the previously unreleased tracks "The Beauty and the Grace", written by Daniel Myer, and "Never Seems to End" by Eskil Simonsson and Joakim Montelius.
The "Lightbringer" EP is undeniable evidence of the synergistic COVENANT maxim "we are more than the sum of our parts". The light is very bright indeed! Strictly limited to 3000 units.
