Angel Nation, the female fronted melodic metal band featuring Leaves’ Eyes vocalist Elina Siirala, have released a music video for "Seraph", the first single from their new album, Antares. Watch below. Antares will be released on CD and digital on April 8, and on limited vinyl on June 3 via Inner Wound Recordings.

Elina Siiralacomments on the single: "'Seraph' is the manifestation of all the willpower and determination we've had to show as a band and as individuals during the past two years. Lockdowns, no concerts, no normal life.. it's easy to forget who you are and slowly sink into the darkness. But the power of the music will always bring us back to the surface and at the end 'from the light, reborn I will rise like Seraph'."

The third album takes Angel Nation to a new level. Named after the star "Antares", the brightest object in the constellation of Scorpius, it takes the listener on a journey of multiple elements, through an album full of energy and fire with the true sound of a metal band! Antares is combining catchy melodies, stadium rock and powerful metal tunes together with a flavour of modern synths, while maintaining the depth, both musically and lyrically.

Inspired by a concept of an army of angels (Seraphim), the often cryptic texts intertwine with true life stories, leaving room for the listeners own interpretation. The album is mixed and mastered by Alexander Krull (Leaves' Eyes, Atrocity) and the artwork was created by Jobert Mello (Sabaton, Primal Fear).

Get ready for it all: Heavy, rocking and epic tunes from this highly anticipated album with tons of character.
