Cosmic Vision is a melodic/progressive death metal band from Germany formed in 2018 by Jannes Felsner. Cosmic Vision’s music is strongly inspired by the local nature, and so are the lyrical themes which are either storytelling-focused or of personal matter.
“In The Sign of Nature” is the second Cosmic Vision album. Its origins go back to the year 2019 in which all the songs on the album were written and recorded for the first time – but never released. In 2021 and 2022 the songs were finalized and re-recorded, re-mixed and mastered.
Despite every song on “In The Sign Of Nature” is standing for its own, they are all in some way connected to the overall concept of the album: To depict forms of codependency between the forces of nature, living beings and/or the self. This concept manifests itself in the music: Every song aims to create an atmosphere without neglecting variety in the composition of the song structures and the melodic elements. The result is a versatile melodic death metal album with influences from acoustic music, prog and black metal which has to offer many different soundscapes and a continuous interplay between epic and delicate melodies as well as harsh and quiet parts.
Music, Production, Mixing and Mastering by Jannes Felsner.
