Borealis

Borealis released their new album, Fall From Grace, on May 20th via Lion Music. Produced and mixed by Jodan Valeriote in Ontario and mastered by Tomas Johansson at the world famous Panic Room Studios in Sweden (SCAR SYMMETRY, WARRIOR SOUL, MISERATION), this album is a sonic masterpiece, according to a press release. And topped by the fantastic artwork by Frank Fiedler, the entire package comes off as one of this year's most impressive power metal releases.

Fall From Grace tracklisting:

'Finest Hour'

'Words I Failed To Say'

'Fall From Grace'

'Where We Started'

'Breaking The Curse'

'Regeneration'

'Watch The World Collapse'

'Take You Over'

'Forgotten Forever'

Fall From Grace sees Borealis take a heavier approach for their label debut along with a more mature and progressive spin put on the songs when compared to their first appearance, but the bands song writing process in which every idea is explored and considered has not changed. On the new material bassist Jamie Smith comments, "We feel that because of song writing process this is a very diverse, energetic album. Lyrically, a few avenues were explored for the album, taking a more 'real life' approach than was taken before. Again, a collaborative effort on the lyrics ensured that they fit the music perfectly and reflected every band member's tastes in their own way."
