SARCASM’s long awaited second album Within The Sphere Of Ethereal Minds was a triumph of will over tragedy. The vibrant proof that twenty-three years (!) after their last recording, a band could come back from the dead and deliver against all odds their best album yet, despite the numerous obstacles on their path, least being the tragic and sudden death of their drummer, the sadly missed Oskar Karlsson, just months before they were meant to enter the studio. Not only does Esoteric Tales Of The Unserene repeat that feat but adds new shades and sounds to their already epic style, proving that nearly three decades after first forming back in 1990 in Uppsala, SARCASM still have something new and relevant to say.
After another line-up tweaking - right after Ethereal Minds recording, the band and Matte Modin amicably parted ways to allow the veteran drummer to focus on his other bands. That saw Alvaro Svanerö from IMPERIAL DOMAIN joining SARCASM, they wasted no time, musically expanding even more for what might be their boldest and most ambitious album ever.
