SIREN'S RAIN - Exclusive Premiere Of Lyric Video "Keepers"


Terra Relicta web magazine has teamed up with Siren's Rain, the amazing female-fronted dark/folk/pagan metal band from Pacific Northwest, exactly from Tacoma, Washington (USA). The band is premiering right here a nature-inspired lyric video for the blackened folk metal track "Keepers". The track is taken from their debut full-length, Rise Forth, which was released on the 8th of October. The new record follows the EPs Nightmares From The Abyss (2019) and Beneath The Narrors (2016, re-released 2018).  

Offering a layered composition of metal and traditional folk instruments, Siren’s Rain is the premiere folk metal band in Washington State, blending the new with the timeworn. Founded in 2014 by William Beritich and Irene Hellzinger, Siren's Rain delivers heavy riffs, haunting vocals and ethereal melodies using a vast array of traditional folk instruments. Drawing musical influences from the likes of Eluveitie, Korpiklaani, and Nightwish. Siren's Rain combine deeply emotive and powerful sounds with fascinating lyrics. Much of their lyrical writing is inspired by the mythology of the Pacific Northwest, occasionally venturing further afield with global legends and ghost stories.

The band comments: "This work revisits the harp and mandolin and introduces the nyckelharpa to the band's instrumentation. This album delves into the themes of abandonment, betrayal, hope, despair and resilience. Heavier, faster and galloping, this work showcases the band's musical growth and exploration of the barriers of aggression."

During their career, the folk metallers have headlined events such as The Black Stage at Seattle Hempfest (2018), Olympia Hempfest (2016), and The Washington State Midsummer Renaissance Faire (2017). Gaining further recognition in the realms of folk metal, they opened for Korpikalaani and Arkona in 2018. With each album comes rebirth, renewal, and revival. Siren’s Rain is devoted to weaving the haunting and torrid tales of the mysterious North West in song and soul.

Siren's Rain visits hope, despair, betrayal, and destruction through its lyrics and musical themes. Listen now and watch the beautiful new lyric video for the galloping blackened folk metal hymn "Keepers" below.

Siren's Rain line-up: Ed Miller (guitars, nyckelharpa, backing vocals), Micahel Heaney (guitars, mandolin), William Beritich (bass, backing vocals), Scott Eugene Jones (drums, percussion) and Irene Hellzinger (vocals, harp, percussion).
