ZORNHEYM launched their new album “Descending Into Madness”

Symphonic metal outfit Zornheym have released their brand new studio album Descending Into Madness, which is out now via Noble Demon.

Founded in Stockholm, Sweden, as an ambitious vision by its creator, multi-instrumentalist and songwriter Zorn (ex-Dark Funeral), with the goal of realizing his interpretation of the ultimate concept band – a complete fusion of music, narrative, and visual storytelling. Since its inception, the band has set out to redefine the traditional “metal meets symphony” approach, developing a sound that blends cinematic orchestration with a powerful heavy metal backbone and strong influences from melodic death metal, all driven by a distinct sense for epic, memorable melodies.

At the core of Zornheym lies a dark and expanding narrative universe. Each album unfolds within the walls of the mental asylum Zornheim – a place shrouded in mystery, madness, and horror – where the institution itself becomes the central character. Across releases, the band explores different eras of its sinister history through layered storytelling, recurring themes, and hidden connections. This concept was introduced on their debut album “here Hatred Dwells and Darkness Reigns (2017) and further expanded on the critically acclaimed The Zornheim Sleep Experiment (2021), followed by the acoustic EP The Forgotten Inmates (2023), which completed the first chapter of the asylum’s story.
