Following the success of their debut album, Metamorphosis, enchanting quartet THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON embark on a new journey. Their new single, “Can’t Catch Me Now”, leads them into the sinister Panem. A rendition of pop star Olivia Rodrigo’s original addition to the soundtrack of Hollywood blockbuster “The Hunger Games: The Ballad Of Songbirds & Snakes”, THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON’s latest song fuses cinematic orchestration, haunting melody, and thunderous heaviness into a breathtaking sonic voyage. Fronted by vocalist Melissa Bonny (AD INFINITUM) and powered by the guitar work of Hans Platz (FEUERSCHWANZ), this metal interpretation of “Can’t Catch Me Now” is melodic, hypnotic, and fiercely untamed – a hymn for all who dare to run free in the shadows.
THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON about “Can’t Catch Me Now”:
“‘Can’t Catch Me Now’ – our first release since our debut album Metamorphosis! A new chapter begins, and we can’t wait to take you with us to new shores.”
Fantastical metal quartet THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON features members of FEUERSCHWANZ, Amaranthe and AD INFINITUM. Together, they dive into the adventures of heroic characters, adding nonpareil soundscapes to their beloved stories. Guitar virtuoso Hans Platz and drum master Morten Løwe Sørensen shape their heavy sound throughout original songs and soundtrack reinterpretations alike, leaving room for harpist Jenny Diehl to add her delicate touch. Vocal queen Melissa Bonny guides through mystical worlds from “Harry Potter” to “Game Of Thrones” so enchantingly, that their debut album Metamorphosis obtained top 20 charting positions in their native Germany and Switzerland.
