NEW ALBUM OUT! THROUGH BATTLEGOD PRODUCTIONS
"Life Force is a contemplative album full of rich musical tapestries and opposing forces, much like its album cover; it is powerful, imbued with a sense of passion that is contagious, and all delivered with musical aplomb"
​
"Just as this album maintains a solid center of gravity, firmly anchored in clear structures and powerful riffs, it also knows how to create spaces of suspended time, where the symphonic aspect doesn't seek immediate impact, but rather opens the doors to contemplation."
“Life Force” moves with energy and aplomb, taking charge and forging the chaos."
"Life Force " is the third release under the Darkyra brand. The album jointly arranged and produced by Garry King and Gina Bafile and Mixed and Edited by Garry King at 'La Foret Studio', South West France.
Life-Force is a collection of songs based around both the light and dark aspects of human nature, It is a walk through an eclectic mind, cinematic storytelling driven by the push pull of good and evil, the inner and outer demons, slaves to a virtual world yet there are those still willing to give it all for a Celebrity Smile.
"Life Force" we see it fade slowly in the sick as they slip away, we feel the vibrancy of the youth who have time and energy to play and within our memories the fallen forever loved, sometimes felt as if they remain.
"Life Force" it flows within us all. It is the unity of friends across the globe, the creation of magic in the form of music. The spirit within that speaks volumes....after all...THE WORLD IS A STAGE!
​
​​Featuring a long cast of extraordinary musicians and collaborators from around the globe.
