2011, Dark Suns always were committed to prog. While their previous albums, the melancholic EXISTENCE (2005) and the highly complex and demanding GRAVE HUMAN GENUINE (2008), gave fresh impetus to progressive metal, the direction of impact in the year 2011 clearly is rock. ORANGE is the title of the result of their labours that is released now, and the musicians from Leipzig take the moniker of their fourth album serious indeed: the dark tone colours of their previous albums have given way to a more vivid orange hue. Instead of once more serving up complex and elaborate slabs of prog metal, Dark Suns' mode of operation is a lot more spontaneous and rocking in 2011 - flagrantly flirting with classic (prog) rock of the Seventies and more easy-going than ever before.
