Doom metal wizards AVATARIUM will finally release their new dark gospel titled »The Fire I Long For,« next week through Nuclear Blast. After teasing fans with album trailers recently, the group is proud to present the second single, ‘Voices’ today.

Watch the accompanying mystical visualizer video here.

Vocalist Jennie-Ann Smith states, “This piece just felt completely natural to write, in all its heaviness it came down easily. Some awkward elements, super-heavy guitar riffs, an uber-brilliant organ solo by Rickard Nilsson and some absolutely mind-blowing drums by Andreas “Habo” Johansson. It is so AVATARIUM…Close your eyes…Just listen to the music…”
