Montreal (Canada) based melogaze act Vision Eternel has released today, for Valentine’s Day, an exclusive song "Sometimes In Absence". It's actually not a new track but an unreleased old track from Vision Eternel's archives. This Valentine's Day marks the sixteenth anniversary of Vision Eternel's debut extended play, Seul Dans L'obsession. It is also the fourteenth anniversary of the Japanese compilation, An Anthology Of Past Misfortunes, and the eighth anniversary of the extended play Echoes From Forgotten Hearts. All Vision Eternel releases were originally planned to be released on Valentine's Day, but most of them missed the deadline due to recording, mixing, mastering, artwork or record label delays.
Unfortunately, Vision Eternel does not have the new release it hoped to present its fans in 2023, but since this holiday is such a meaningful and important date in the band's calendar (and is also Jack Benny's birthday), Vision Eternel is offering a Valentine's Day heartbreak treat: "Sometimes In Absence", an unreleased rarity from the band's archives.
"Sometimes In Absence" remained incomplete from its anticipated form and was therefore unused. However, the song later received additional arrangements throughout 2017 and 2018, and was eventually re-recorded as "Moments Of Absence", and released on Vision Eternel's 2020 concept extended play, For Farewell Of Nostalgia. "Sometimes In Absence", therefore, presents a stepping stone between "Season In Absence" and "Moments Of Absence".
This year's Valentines Day exclusive is accompanied by an original ink drawing by Rain Frances at Rain Frances Art. Frances has provided artwork for past Vision Eternel releases, including For Farewell Of Nostalgia, the An Anthology Of Past Misfortunes boxed set, the Lost Misfortunes series, and the forthcoming deluxe edition of Echoes From Forgotten Hearts, as well as previous Valentine's Day exclusives.
