Dagoba - Different Breed

Red Transparent 12" vinyl (33rpm) in deluxe gatefold. - With 'Different Breed', their ninth album, French metal band DAGOBA wanted to offer music that could bring together old fans and newcomers alike. - Thanks to 8 memorable albums, and their incredibly intense shows, DAGOBA have also extended their influence internationally, gaining a devoted fan base across the globe. - Meticulously theorised night after night during their 2022 European tour, 'Different Breed' honours every distinctive feature that makes the band what it is: massive riffs, orchestration, indus passages and heady choruses, while bringing them up to date with the know-how they've acquired over the years. Mixed and mastered by Chris Coulter (Arcane Roots, Idles) in London, 'Different Breed' offers listeners an uncompromising plunge into a world that's harsh and dark, but also melancholy and full of hope. As its name suggests, 'Different Breed' is a breath of fresh air in DAGOBA's discography but will also prove to be their most unifying album. - Formed in 1997 in Marseille, DAGOBA conquered the French metal audience during the 2000s with their unique blend of death, thrash and industrial metal. - Always seeking innovation, DAGOBA have constantly explored new musical horizons with each album, incorporating more and more electronic elements and experimental sounds while retaining their distinct identity. - The artwork, by painter Mathieu Questel, depicts a brutal creature with human features. - The focus lies on fans of Extreme Modern metal to turn them into engaged listeners and customers. - RIYL's: Fear Factory, Mnemic, Sybreed.
