THURISAZ's follow-up to 2011's "The Cimmerian Years" was produced by the band's guitarist Peter Theuwen together with Nik Mettez and Kris Belaen at the CCR studios (AXAMENTA, IN-QUEST, SUHRIM) in Zulte and mastered at the Tailor Maid Studio.
The band has the following to say about "The Pulse Of Mourning": "The Pulse of Mourning is a logical next step for Thurisaz after 2011's "The Cimmerian Years", but also a return to the rawness of 2007's "Circadian Rhythm". Once again we tried to create a very diverse album in which the many aspects of desillusion and bitterness are passing by."

01. Longing...
02....For A Change
03. Patterns Of Life
04. Tangram
05. Rays Of Light
06. One Final Step

The long awaited new album by the influential dark rock band. With many of the current crop of young goth and alternative bands being influenced by punk and metal, the TLD sound is fresher than ever. It starts with an aggressive core of soaring guitars, passionate vocals and a relentless driving rhythm section and adds additional instrumentation or electronic flourishes as needed for variety and "spice", but always remains true to the original post-punk spirit and influences that first brought these superb musicians together. The old saying "what goes around, comes around" is as true as ever and The Last Dance are ready to bring the new release Ruins and their unique brand of dark rock to the world stage.
Young international film music talent will have the chance to win the highly sought after SABAM Award For Best Young International Composer. This award was created by the World Soundtrack Academy and is worth €2,500 plus the compositions of the three finalists will be performed by Brussels Philharmonic and Flemish Radio Choir, conducted by maestro Dirk Brossé, during the 15th World Soundtrack Awards, also known as the official closing ceremony of the 42nd Film Fest Gent.
Film Fest Gent and the WSAwards offer young talent the chance to win renown as a film music composer.

This will be the first year that the contest is launched internationally!
The three finalists will be invited at a fantastic three- day visit in Ghent where they will have the opportunity to meet with international film music professionals.
