EIGHT BELLS - Shares New Single/Video From Forthcoming

The USA based avant-garde doom project Eight Bells, conceived by guitarist and singer Melynda Jackson, is now revealing a dark melancholic single/video "The Well" taken from its forthcoming new album Legacy Of Ruin, which is scheduled for release on 25 February.

Eight Bells comments: "This song's story is particularly personal for me", explains singer and guitarist Melynda Jackson. "It explores the emotions and fears of pastoral 'salt of the earth types' looking over the land that no longer yields a good harvest as a metaphor describing their lives. Mourning the bountiful past and coming to realize that they themselves are responsible for a bleak future. Melynda Amann, who was a member during the writing of this track, is also singing with us, while  Andrea Morgan adds haunting ambience with his violin."

With their third album, Portland metal experimentalists Eight Bells sharpened their songwriting approach to creating a soundtrack for the end of the world. Legacy Of Ruin again features the trio's trademark haunting vocal harmonies along with sometimes blistering, and sometimes impressionistic guitar riffing to create heady atmospheres of dark and light. Check on "The Well" right below. Link
