Australia's dark symphonic metal ensemble Carmeria, which released its sophomore full-length, Tragédie D'amour, last August, has shared a new single/video, "Lost In The Snow", from its approaching acoustic EP, Trinity: Volume I, due on 14 February.
"Lost In The Snow" is a heartfelt anthem of support and resilience, where the narrator promises to guide a lost soul through darkness and hardship, offering light and comfort in times of despair. With imagery of snow and frost, the song emphasizes unwavering companionship and the power of hope to overcome life's challenges.
Lead singer Jordan Von Grae states: "'Lost In The Snow' was born from a collection of improvised lullabies I used to sing to my daughter to comfort her during a series of health complications. It was a particularly difficult time in our lives, however, as time went on, things started improving, and I decided I would weave these verses into one cohesive lullaby for her. The more I worked on it, the more I felt it'd be an appropriate choice for the 'new original' slot on Trinity. At its core, 'Lost In The Snow' is an expression of hope in the dark, and a father's promise to always be the light in the storm. It is different to anything we've released before, and I like that the lyrics are open-ended enough to warrant alternate interpretations. We often receive messages from people disclosing that our music has helped them through difficult times. Whilst this song was written for my daughter, I also like to think it serves as an ode to those who find solace in our music - a reassurance that the music of Carmeria will always be there to hold their hands in times of turmoil".
Trinity: Volume I features three powerful tracks: "Lost In The Snow", "Solaris (Acoustic)" and "A Sailorman's Hymn" that seamlessly blend Carmeria's signature dark symphonic metal style with ethereal, emotional storytelling. With Trinity: Volume I, Carmeria invites its audience to embark on an emotional adventure, where every note and lyric is designed to resonate deeply and leave a lasting impression. Link
