At first glance Madness Of The Night may appear as just another Gothrock/Metal Duo. Here Guitarist Daniel Dante as the creative head, there singer Abir Blackshadow – so far, so normal! But on closer inspection one can see two culturally different people who nonetheless - or just because of that – complement each other perfectly.

Daniel from Sweden, deeply rooted in 80s Metal met Abir from Beirut, Lebanon, through the Internet. Their shared love for Gothic and Darkwave Bands such as Sisters Of Mercy, Dead Can Dance or The Cult eventually led to forming Madness Of The Night in 2011. "The Asgarda", their debut album, goes way beyond being the satisfying musical offspring of their collaboration. It is also the intimate soundtrack of singer Abir holding on in times of hostilities and oppression. The attempt of leading the self-confident life of a woman within the confined space of an arabian metropolis.
