⚔️ Death Metal Just Found Its New Home in the Austrian Alps⚔️
From deep within the Austrian Alps of Upper Austria, Screams Of Tranquility returns with Nightshade Serenity, a five-track EP forged from loss, hypocrisy, scars, and untamed fury.
Driven entirely by the singular vision of Marc, the one-man force behind the project, this release tears into the darker corners of human legacy: the lies people leave behind, the wounds carried forward, and the destructive comfort sometimes mistaken for peace.
Opening track "No Stars To Guide" sets the tone immediately with blast beats, crushing guitars, wrath-laden vocals, and epic melodic layers. "Loss Was Just A Win" and "Pale Black Skies" sharpen the blade further, fusing melodic death metal, blackened aggression, and thrash-driven intensity with the poetic bitterness that defines the project.
But Nightshade Serenity has another side. The title track stands as one of the most unusual moments in the band's catalog, an unplugged, atmospheric folklore ballad built on acoustic guitars, piano, and orchestral depth, revealing a haunting sense of calm beneath the chaos.
Closing with "Ruins Of Yesterday," the EP delivers one final collision of fire, ice, and consequence.
For fans of Death, Obituary, and Morbid Angel, Nightshade Serenity doesn't just deliver another metal EP. It carves a path through darkness, deception, and finality, leaving listeners standing among the ruins.

Biography
"Screams Of Tranquility" stands as the dynamic brainchild led by the gifted Marc P. Prohaska, a 29-year-old musician based in the idyllic foothills of the Austrian Alps in Upper Austria. This captivating project delves deep into the narratives of a society marred by excess, laying bare its hypocrisies, collective folly, and the gradual erosion of humanity.
Marc's musical palette is a vibrant fusion of influences, melding Scandinavian melodic death, American thrash, and hints of black metal. With deft craftsmanship, he intertwines pulsating rhythms and intricate orchestrations, weaving a spellbinding tapestry of sound.
From his beginnings as a musician at the age of 18, Marc has explored diverse musical avenues, ranging from pop-punk to rock and metal cover bands. However, it was through the emergence of Screams Of Tranquility that his artistic vision truly blossomed. In 2019, Marc graduated as a recording, mixing, and mastering engineer from HOFA College, now operating his own successful mixing and mastering business as a freelancer.
While Screams Of Tranquility is a solo endeavor, questions about the absence of additional band members only underscore Marc's proficiency and the effectiveness of his approach to "running SOT as if it were a fully occupied band." His unwavering dedication and skill shine through in every aspect of his work.
For those in search of authentic, meticulously crafted music that transcends the confines of mainstream melodic death metal, replete with searing leads, impassioned vocals, and profound thematic depth, Screams Of Tranquility stands as a beacon of artistic excellence worthy of exploration.
