With the winds of a new direction steering the band on their latest journey, 'City Burials' stands as Katatonia's new triumph of deep & enigmatic progressive rock u2013 the fruits of a rejuvenating and profound chapter in the band's legacy; a catalyst for its creators, with a collection of moments constructed out of the fragments of an ever-evolving life. Compiled into one of their most important modern works and statements to date, the finely-honed instrumentation provides a multitextured backdrop with the voice of Jonas Renkse guiding us through these latest trials of loss and ruin.
