Album notes:

After a lengthy period of silence, stroszek returns this winter with its new album ‘about all the bad days in the world.’

Formed in 2007 by Claudio Alcara, the guitarist and founder of Frostmoon Eclipse, one of Italy’s original, and longest serving black metal bands, stroszek is a project bringing forth various elements of dark neo-folk, goth rock, and western music blending together seemingly irreconcilable sounds to craft something that is all about feeling and introspection. Contemplation and stories about life are at the forefront of the vibe in stroszek's music.

On ‘about all the bad days in the world’, stroszek continues its solitary journey into the colorless realm of melancholy. While fans will recognize the signature guitar style and vocal delivery that Claudio used on previous albums, subtle soundscapes and production elements enter this new musical chapter, adding dynamic and enhanced imagery to the album, while carrying the listener further into the artist’s personal fragmented cityscape.
