CHILDREN OF BODOM second single & lyric video, ELUVEITIE first single & music video released, ARRIVAL OF AUTUMN to release “Harbinger” this March
Finland’s melodic death superstars CHILDREN OF BODOM are going to release their tenth album, Hexed, on March 8, 2019 via Nuclear Blast Records.
Today, the band reveals the official lyric video for the second single “This Road” which can be seen here.
COB frontman, guitarist, and mastermind Alexi Laiho comments: “This Road was actually the last song I wrote but it ended up being the opening track and also one of the singles which makes me happy cos it’s one of my faves. It’s different from anything we’ve done since Follow the Reaper but it’s still new. Check it out and you’ll know what I mean.”
We all wade through archetypes. We all ARE archetypes. Distant echoes of a life both primeval and noble. To embrace these archetypes, to accept them not only as a part of life but as life itself is what some may call enlightenment, some peace of mind. ELUVEITIE call it Ategnatos. And by using their longest ever gap between albums to gather momentum, they just forged their strongest album around it. Ategnatos will be released on April 5th 2019 via Nuclear Blast.
Today, the band has released the title track as the debut single, right in time for the pre-order start. The song can be heard and watched in the form of a music video over on YouTube. The music video was produced by the Polish company Grupa13 in January 2019 and can be seen here. Stream or download the new single here: http://nblast.de/EluAtegnatosSingle. Pre-order Ategnatos here.
Chrigel Glanzmann states: “So here it is, the first single off our new album (well, apart the ‘sneak peek’ you already got a year ago with ‘Rebirth’), being the title track itself. It’s the song off the album introducing you into the whole mental realm that is ‘Ategnatos’! Its message comes inconvenient maybe, challenging, evocative. This is a call from Antumnos!”
Canadian metal upstarts ARRIVAL OF AUTUMN, will release their second full-length album and Nuclear Blast debut on March 29. »Harbinger« was produced and mixed by Jason Suecof (DEVILDRIVER, THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER, ALL THAT REMAINS, TRIVIUM) and mastered by Alan Douches (DARKEST HOUR, EVERY TIME I DIE, SUICIDE SILENCE).

“»Harbinger« is a warning for all of us to pay attention to what’s going on in the world and improve what we can before it’s too late,” commented vocalist Jamison Friesen. “‘The Endless’ questions if we’re disposable pawns in a game that we’re born playing. Do we have the free will to escape, or is humanity doomed to be trapped in a loop?”
