AMORPHIS SHARE NEW SINGLE "BONES" + MUSIC VIDEO

Arriving on September 26, the new Amorphis album, Borderland.

Unlike the first single “Light And Shadow,” which leaned more into a hopeful tone, “Bones” dives into darker, heavier territory. Lyrically, the song explores the struggles for survival faced by early Finns, supported by crushing riffs,

Eastern-inspired strings, and thick layers of keyboards  creating a sound that’s both intense and atmospheric.

In the chorus, Tomi Joutsen’s clean, emotionally charged vocals cut through the darkness with flashes of light and hope.Keyboardist Santeri Kallio shares:

“As a starting point, I wanted to prove that even a keyboard player can create an AMORPHIS song which is based on a heavy riff, and to everyone's surprise, ‘Bones’ turned out to be the heaviest “Borderland” song.”

Their passion and vision made every moment memorable, and filming the music video together created an unforgettable energy and synergy.”

Chris Harms adds:

“Tina Guo is not only a phenomenal cellist, but also one of the most wonderful and inspiring people I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting in the music industry. Performing this song with her and even playing the cello together was incredible, both in the studio and during the video shoot. But I can’t wait to have her on stage with us live someday!”

BLACKBRIAR RELEASE MUSIC VIDEO FOR "HARPY"

Macabre raconteurs Blackbriar have released their latest single, the soaring “Harpy”.

The track weaves a tale about the mythological being, the Harpy the spirit of the wind and storms, a chilling creature who was known to abduct people, particularly those cursed by the gods.

Vocalist Zora Cock comments:

“In this song, I call upon a Harpy to please carry me away after I’ve died a thousand little deaths. I lure it with my carrion heart, after all, Harpies are known as human vultures. If not, I fear I might be stuck in the same place, slowly left eroding. I need to die one last time to be laid to rest finally. This song, Harpy, inspired the album title.”

MUSE REVEAL NEW SINGLE "UNRAVELLING"

VOLBEAT UNLEASH NEW SINGLE "DEMONIC DEPRESSION" 

“‘Demonic Depression’ is based on one of my really good friends and the state of mind that he was in for a couple

of years,” says Poulsen. “I’ve played it for several friends, and they’ve all asked, ‘Did you write that about me?’

Which is a little scary and just shows how many people are dealing with mental issues in certain parts of their lives

and how many are constantly struggling.”

He furthers, “It’s about some heavy mental issues, so I guess the message is pretty universal. Depression is so all-consuming, and it affects so many people, and the best way to help someone struggling with it is to talk to them and listen what they have to say. I’ve had my share of mental issues throughout life, so I guess I’m part of the lyrics, too.”
