DEIMLER - Darkness Falls CD

our years ago, the guitarist and vocalist had chosen to take the listeners back to space where no one could hear you scream with Immortalized, a concept album based on Ridley Scott highly influential Alien : The 8th Passenger movie from 1979. This time around, Pako has decided to pay tribute to one of the 90’s most revered series and personal favorite of his, The X-Files. “I really like to explore science-fiction with my writing. To me, reality always surpasses fiction, this is why I love that genre so much. The X-Files series greatly influenced me at a certain point in my life so I’ve always wanted to bring it into the DEIMLER world.” Actually, if you pay attention close enough, you’ll even be able to spot few notes stolen from the show famous theme in the song, ‘Darkness Falls’…

As the cover artwork, once again handled by José Antonio Vives who’s been working with them ever since debut their EP Zero One in 2020, the album is actually entirely based on one specific episode and fans’ favorites. Curled from the first season, it was titled, you’ve guessed it, Darkness Falls. A stand-alone story not exactly tied up with the whole X-Files mythology, which was still in the making by then, with agents Mulder and Scully looking for a group of loggers missing in Olympic National Forest in Washington State, only to be confronted by a deadly form of mutant insects. Pako admits he loves that episode in particular because of its “atmosphere” but also because it’s “one of the few episodes where the main characters have a hard time and are truly in great danger.”
