FELLOWSHIP Releases “Dawnbreaker” Music Video
October 11, 2024, a month ago
Fellowship has released "Dawnbreaker", first single taken from the new album The Skies Above Eternity to be released on November 22 by Scarlet Records.
"Dawnbreaker" is a song of rebellion and the desire for freedom, carrying a beat that infects listeners with hope, drive, and ambition. Everyone has times where we feel like the world is completely dark; where neither light nor sound can get through the walls we put up to protect ourselves, or hide within. If we stay in the dark long enough, our eyes adapt and our pupils grow – we end up with ‘iron eyes’, all black, and hungry for any trace of light that finds its way into our dark worlds.
Fellowship was the absolute power metal revelation of 2022 with their magnificent debut album The Saberlight Chronicles; after successfully bringing their positive vibes live in Europe and Japan, and hitting the American stage for the first time as headliners of the Mad With Power Fest on August 2, the English band is now ready to take things to the next level with their sophomore record.
Once again recorded by Richard Campbell at Orpheus Studio, mixed and mastered by Alexander Backlund and Ricardo Borges at Fascination Street Studios, and graced by a stunning artwork courtesy of the Hungarian maestro Peter Sallai, The Skies Above Eternity is a journey into a new side of the Fellowship sound.
Darker, and more dynamic, but still retaining that classic Fellowship sense of joy, this album tells a new story that delves into a deeper sense of melancholy with themes of helplessness and resistance, asks us to find joy in the darkest of places through its uplifting, powerful choruses, and reminds us that with each new day comes new hope – because sometimes all it takes to find it is looking up at the skies above you.
Drawing additional influence from Japanese power metal and delivering non-stop bangers from start to finish, this might just be the work that catapults Fellowship all the way up to the stars!
The Skies Above Eternity will be released in the following formats:
- digipack CD
- vinyl LP: 350 marbled silver (retail exclusive), 150 marbled purple (mailorder exclusive)
