Sweden's illustrious industrial metal pioneers, Rave The Reqviem, have released today via Out Of Line their fifth highly anticipated album entitled Ex-Eden. Rave The Reqviem, have consistently pushed the boundaries of musical experimentation. The band is renowned for their distinctive fusion of metal, electronic elements, and symphonic influences. Alongside the release of Ex-Eden, they have premiered a new music video for the track "Exit Babylon".
The new album features eleven meticulously crafted tracks that showcase the band's signature blend of heavy guitars, epic strings, and powerful beats. With Ex-Eden Rave The Reqviem presents their darkest, heaviest, and most defined album to date. The band embarks on a soul-searching journey through themes of death and despair within a deteriorating paradise. This new sonic assault features heavy guitars, hard-hitting beats, sweet melodies, catchy hooks, and epic Baroque orchestrations. At its core, the new album Ex-Eden explores the theme of loss of faith. It delves into the darkest and most cynical corners of human existence while maintaining an undeniable sense of power and resilience. It is a profound sonic journey that challenges conventions and redefines the boundaries of modern metal.
"Exit Babylon", co-written with Jake E (Cyhra, ex-Amaranthe) and Jesper Strömblad (Halo Effect, ex-In Flames), is probably the most accessible track from the band to this day. This dancefloor-friendly hit song is inspired by the Old Testament and the enslavement of God's people by tyrants and sinners in golden halls. A hard-hitting metaphor for surviving even the most relentless of difficulties in this life.
Ex-Eden invites the listeners to explore the depths of Rave The Reqviem's musical evolution and the transformative power of their artistry as a testament to their unrelenting brutality and enduring beauty.
