“As Stars Collide” is taken from NECROPHOBIC‘s upcoming tenth studio album, ‘In the Twilight Grey,’ which is due on March 15, 2023 via Century Media Records!
Lead guitarist Sebastian Ramstedt says that “As Stars Collide” is “The most important song on the album for me personally. It starts off with the main melody, that was actually something my mother sang to me as a kid in the early 70’s. It is almost like a chant, or a dark lullaby. I wanted to honor her melody, but put it in my own context. I used one of the oldest stories ever told and drew inspiration from ‘Innana’s Descent’ – the tale where the morning and evening star meet in the underworld to decide whether good or evil should reign. I wanted to create something that stretched beyond the metal barriers.”
