Swedish gothic doom entity DRACONIAN is finally back! Their new studio album, In Somnolent Ruin, will creep its way from the artists spirit into the light of day on May 8, 2026 via Napalm Records. This promises to be one of the most personal records in the bands discography, revealed through a dreamlike journey across nine tracks and the poetic lyricism of vocalist Anders Jacobsson. As a recurring theme, DRACONIAN explore Platos theory of the soul an element that was not planned from the very beginning, but instead emerged organically during the creation. In 2022, the band announced the return of vocalist Lisa Johansson. Johansson had been the bands vocalist for their first five records before leaving DRACONIAN in 2011 for personal reasons.
