IGNEA - Announces Release Of New Album And Reveals First Single/Video

Ukrainian oriental/symphonic metal band Ignea is ready to share its thrilling next adventure, a new concept album, Dreams Of Lands Unseen, due on 28 April via Napalm Records.

The band has revealed the first single, "Nomad's Luck", which takes listeners on an energetic journey showcasing Ignea's incredible story-telling talent. The song is only a piece of the brand-new concept album, which resembles an epic soundtrack. The Ukrainian band is ready to enchant fans with their powerful performances!

Ignea on "Nomad's Luck": "'Nomad's Luck' is about all the dangers of the road. Traveling on her own to the distant corners of the world, Yablonska could have died multiple times, from poisonous plants and diseases to superstitions and taboos of the natives. She could have settled down but her will for discovering new places overshadowed any risks. In this song, it's as if Yablonska questions herself, how long she would last this way, 'pushing nomad's luck'..."

The ten-track concept album, Dreams Of Lands Unseen, reflects the life of Ukrainian photographer and documentarian Sofia Yablonska, known for travelling to most distant corners of the world while documenting the lives of tribes and natives, which was especially dangerous and uncommon for a woman of her time. Sonically, Ignea creates a captivating masterpiece which resembles, thanks in part to diverse genre influences, an epic soundtrack-like experience. Producing, mixing and mastering were helmed by Max Morton (Jinjer, Morton), whilst Dmitry Kim managed engineering and drum production.

Vocalist Helle Bohdanova on the album: "This record is not just our take on the around-the-world adventures of Sofia Yablonska but also a tribute to one of the greatest Ukrainians of the past century. Her cutting-edge lifestyle, wisdom, savviness and breathtaking stories are so exceptional that they could inspire to write several more albums. I myself am a passionate traveler, and Yablonska's philosophy is very close to mine on so many levels. Let me invite you on this journey and show you the dreams of lands unseen through Sofia's eyes..."
