New Jersey (USA) based female-fronted symphonic metal outfit Everdawn - formerly known as Midnight Eternal, presents a new video from their second album, Cleopatra, released last year through Sensory Records. The disturbing but inspirational new lyric video for “The Last Eden” can be viewed below.
Everdawn is embodied by lead vocalist Alina Gavrilenko, guitarist/vocalist Richard Fischer, bassist Alan d' Angelo, drummer Dan Prestup, and keyboardist Boris Zaks. The band’s first album under the Everdawn moniker, Cleopatra saw release through Sensory Records in early 2021, delivering eleven epic new movements minutes of epic, progressive, symphonic metal.
The new lyric video for “The Last Eden” puts Everdawn’s views on how humankind treats the planet, with cruel and disturbing visuals meant to jolt the viewer into the overall positive and inspiring lyrics the song portrays.
The band writes in a collective statement: “‘The Last Eden’ is our attempt to bring awareness to the events that oftentimes are considered too disturbing to be discussed, and therefore they are not brought up or taken into account. Such provocative topics as shark finning, poaching, makeup testing on animals, deforestation, and effects of the plastic pollution on our environment due to excessive consumerism and greed for profit are just a few that we elaborate on in the song. As humans, we often choose to ignore or pretend that evil and injustice aren't there as long as we don't see it happen. Hence, why it is critical to face these issues head-on to find resolutions and better ways of spending our time here on planet Earth, in harmony with each other and its other residents (flora and fauna). It is time that we overcome our fear and look at the challenge, right in the eyes, and acknowledge where we've gone wrong and what each of us can do at this time to better our lives and the lives of our future generations. We are the Strength, if we unite to prosper life, not to destroy..." Link
