ECHOES OF ETERNITY Debut New Track
September 3, 2009, 15 years ago
Los Angeles’ female-fronted progressive metallers ECHOES OF ETERNITY have debuted a new track entitled 'Twilight Fires' on their official MySpace page.
The song comes from their upcoming sophomore album, As Shadows Burn.
States guitarist / songwriter Brandon S. Patton about the track: “When we wrote this song, we asked ourselves, ‘What would it sound like if Francine [Boucher, vocalist] was singing for MORBID ANGEL or DISSECTION?’ This is what we came up with. It has a definite black metal/death metal feel to it. I don't think anyone's ever heard this type of female vocal with blast beats and double bass drumming in a context quite like this. It’s dark, seductive and powerful! The way Francine belts it out on this song blows my fucking mind and every one in the band loves the middle section of the song, where there is a slower ‘gallop-picked’ riff that is mean as fuck.”
As previously reported, a three-and-a-half minute video trailer with footage from Echoes Of Eternity’s bonus DVD is now available below.
States the band: "There was a scene involving a teddy bear, a Ouija board, a crack pipe, and a bottle of Suave lotion that we had to leave out (insert sad face here). The good news is there are snippets of some of the best tunes on our new album and plenty of behind-the-scenes antics!!! Check out the footage of Logan Mader getting his head crushed during the guitar tracking! Our new album, As Shadows Burn, will be out on September 22nd!!!! Don't miss the full-length bonus DVD that is included with it!!"
As Shadows Burn was recorded at the Lair and at Dirty Icon studios in Los Angeles. The album was produced, engineered, mixed, and mastered by Logan Mader (GOJIRA, DIVINE HERESY, FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH, CAVALERA CONSPIRACY).
The tracklisting for As Shadows Burn is as follows: 'Ten Of Swords', 'A Veiled Horizon', 'Memories Of Blood And Gold', 'The Scarlet Embrace', 'Descent Of A Blackened Soul', 'Twilight Fires', 'Buried Beneath A Thousand Dreams', 'Letalis Deus, 'Funeral In The Sky'.
