At its height in the second century AD, the Roman Empire was the beacon of learning, power, and prosperity in the western world. But the once-powerful Rome – rotten to the core by the fifth century – lay open to barbarian warriors who came in wave after wave of invasion, slaughtering, stealing, and ultimately, settling. As chaos replaced culture, Europe was beset by famine, plague, persecutions, and a state of war that was so persistent it was only rarely interrupted by peace. THE DARK AGES profiles those who battled to shape the future, from the warlords whose armies threatened to cause the demise of European society, such as Alaric, Charles the Hammer, and Clovis; to the men and women who valiantly tended the flames of justice, knowledge, and innovation including Charlemagne, St. Benedict, Empress Theodora, and other brave souls who fought for peace and enlightenment. It was in the shadows of this turbulent millennium that the seeds of modern civilization were sown.

The first ever, vocally infused song from genius producer Sander Van Doorn, is about to break- and by the sound of it, it’s gonna break big. ‘Love is Darkness’ is the new vocal masterpiece by Sander van Doorn. It is also a theme that each person on the planet can immediately relate to. With ‘Love is Darkness,’ Sander effectively marries an unexpected, perfectly original vocal with his own, uncontrived, perfectly original musicality. A marriage made in Heaven as they say. With jagged sincerity, songwriter Carol Lee (of infamous Dutch alternative rock band Bettie Serveert) expresses the painful and raw fragility within every fractured relationship. “I know it’s over, but Im still waiting -for another chance- one more change of heart.” But if you were expecting a love song, you better move along. This song is an anthematic, shiver inducing, big room wrecker that will have fans all over the world reaching for the sky and singing along. A soundsystem or two may also be inadvertently destroyed, one of the innocent victims of unrequited love.
