San Francisco (USA)-based neoclassical dark ambient quartet Amber Asylum revealed the title track taken from the forthcoming new album, Ruby Red. The tenth regular full-length of Amber Asylum has been slated for release on 14 February 2025 via Prophecy Productions.

Frontwoman Kris Force comments: "The title track of our new album, Ruby Red, is a poignant dirge that directly addresses the pain and loss inflicted by the pandemic, riots, war, and the looming specter of death. Its haunting melody resonates with the collective sorrow and anguish felt in the aftermath of recent upheavals. Through mournful vocals and evocative instrumentation, the song serves as a solemn elegy, amplifying the echoes of grief caused by these tumultuous events. Each note carries the weight of collective sorrow, inviting listeners to confront the harsh realities of our world and to find solace in shared experience."

Women have often had to bear an even heavier burden in times of trouble throughout history. On their tenth full-length Ruby Red, San Francisco-based all-female quartet Amber Asylum offers a haunting reflection on turbulent eras and blends instrumental passages with evocative lyrics. Ruby Red combines dirges, introspective laments, and powerful songwriting that evoke despair and hope. The album transitions between themes of pain, loss, empowerment, and mortality while creating a sonic landscape that is both raw and introspective. Ruby Red features bass, classical strings, percussion and kit, modular synthesis and female voices. 

With "Ruby Red", Amber Asylum perfectly capture the growing dread and horror of many of a new dark age falling in our time. Yet the Californians balance the eerie and unhinged with a fragile beauty and blossoming of hope. "Ruby Red" is the most fascinating soundtrack of all that is to come. Listen carefully. Link
