Leaves’ Eyes will be releasing a new album, titled “Myths Of Fate,” on March 22. A video for the effort’s latest single, “Realm Of Dark Waves,” can be found below:
The following was said about the new album and single in an official press release:
“With ‘Myths Of Fate’, the band once again set sails for new winds that definitely blow from the harsh shallows of the symphonic metal genre. The fantastic world of legends from Norse and Eastern European mythology is the setting for monumental entertainment. ‘The early Middle Ages were a fascinating time of change. Some of these innovations have left their mark around the globe and continue to impact our modern world’, tells band mastermind and singer Alex Krull.
Leaves’ Eyes open up a world of magical places, spellbound weapons or supernatural creatures. With the first, previously-released single and album opening track ‘Forged By Fire’, they raised the magic sword of Tyrfing. In a bombastic double bass blaze, they tell from a deadly weapon crafted and cursed by dwarves to bring misery over its bearers.
‘These legends always reflected the real-life horrors of those who told them, making them even relatable to modern events of wars and fights’, Alex says.
Now, Leaves’ Eyes have unleashed a music video for their second single, the mediaeval hymn “Realm Of Dark Waves”, that pulls us down into ocean’s desolate depths of Rán, the Goddess of the Sea. This neck-breaker about the sea maiden wife of Ægir is lyrically linked to other Leaves’ Eyes hit classics about maritime gods, like “Njord” or “Nine Wave Maidens”, rounding off the artist’s entire oeuvre!”
