[MUSIC INTERVIEW] DARK TRANQUILLITY – 2025 Australian Tour Interview

One of the architects of ‘The Gothenburg Sound’ Dark Tranquillity will storm Australian shores next February for the first time in over a decade, delivering three exclusive shows in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane!

Masters of melodic death metal, Dark Tranquillity emerged from Sweden’s west coast in the early ’90s, alongside titans like In Flames, At The Gates, and Soilwork. Known for their genre-defining mix of razor-sharp riffs, icy keyboards, and Mikael Stanne’s haunting vocals, the band melds death metal intensity with gothic and progressive experimentation. Through 13 albums, including iconic releases The Gallery, Character, and their latest, 2024’s Endgame Signals, Dark Tranquillity has forged a sound that is as melancholic and thought provoking as it is ferocious.

Ahead of their Australian tour this week Mikael Stanne sat down for a chat with Subculture.
