US heavy metallers Darkology will release their sophomore album, Fated To Burn between the 8th and the 15th of June 2015, through Prime Eon Media and it’s partners worldwide, on CD and digital formats. Multiple special package configurations will be made exclusively available through the band’s web store and a vinyl release may follow later in the year. The album artwork and the new lyric video for the song “On Morrow’s Break” can be viewed below.
Darkology features in it’s ranks the amazing Harris brothers, Michael (Thought Chamber, Arch Rival, Leather, Chastain) on guitars and Brian (Firewind, Solstice (US), My own Victim, etc.) on drums respectively. On vocals Kelly Sundown Carpenter (Beyond Twilight , Outworld, Epysode and former touring vocalist for Firewind), returns with some OUT OF THIS WORLD performances. Last but not least the extremely talented bassist Mike Neal (Medieval Steel, Salems Lot, etc.) lays down some solid grooves and has even co-written about half of the songs on this album, as well as most of the lyrics, making this a great, highly collaborative, team effort.
Chris Tsangarides, the famous Anglo-Cypriot, Grammy nominated producer did handle mixing duties and mastering took place at AthensMastering.
An enthusiastic Chris exclaims: “As I was mixing the album and as the songs were coming alive, I was thinking wow this is good, that is also good, this is VERY good. This happened about a dozen times. It’s rather rare at this day and age, that you get an album that’s all killer and no filler and I am not using that expression lightly. Fated To Burn is a must have album. It’s an aural assault of all senses with plenty of melody and bombast for the most discerning Metal-heads.”
Darkology are:
Kelly Sundown Carpenter – Vocals (Beyond Twilight, Outworld, Epysode and former touring vocalist for Firewind)
Michael Harris – Guitars (Thought Chamber, Arch Rival, Leather, Chastain)
Mike Neal – Bass (Medieval Steel, Salem’s Lot)

Darkology did make quite an impression in 2009, when they released their debut album, Altered Reflections which received tons of praise around the globe and sold, in very healthy qualities. The band did not give up in their effort to make their music more appealing and a couple of years later begun composing what would end up formulating their sophomore release.
The band recently concluded a highly successful tour in 2014 with Overkill, Prong and Enforcer with all reviews that have poured in, being extremely flattering.
