Hot on the heels of announcing their fifteenth studio album, Architects Of A New Weave, due for release on 5 June via Napalm Records, Evergrey now present their new single – the album's title track – accompanied by a visually striking animated video. Once again, Gothenburg's finest export demonstrate their unrivalled ability to forge timeless melodies, powerful riffs, and evocative lyrics, all while continuing to surprise their devoted fans with fresh ideas, even after more than 30 years of existence.
Evergrey's new full-length, Architects Of A New Weave, will be released just days before the band takes the stage as special guests to the undisputed kings of heavy metal, Iron Maiden, for two shows on their Run For Your Lives World Tour. This is the wake-up call you didn't know you needed: A plunge into thinning air, burning worlds, and lingering guilt—only to break free with fierce momentum. The album refuses to wallow. It ascends—fast, heavy, and cinematic. But it refuses to hide in the dark. It rises: Quick, fierce, and utterly transformative.
Tom Englund on the new single: "'Architects Of The New Weave' – It's a blistering first single from our 15th studio album, Architects Of A New Weave, (or the second ferocious strike if you're counting our standalone powerhouse 'OXYGEN!' as its own beast)! I am not afraid to claim this is a no-brainer, sing-along friendly, straight-up great metal song! It came ignited from Rikard Zander's killer keyboard riff, which we hammered into a short, but massive headbanger! When crafting that chorus keyboard line, 'Rainbow In The Dark' was blasting in my head – pure epic inspiration, giving it that timeless, fist-pumping edge. There are dual guitar solos, trading fire in classic old-school style, melodic and memorable. We can't wait to let this rip live! I'm torn on music videos sometimes – I adore them as an art form, but too often the visuals steal focus from the music itself".
"We went bold: a stunning, immersive introduction to Mattias Norén's absolute magnum opus of album artwork. Every tiny, intricate detail comes alive on screen, with the track thundering as the perfect dark soundtrack.- It's hypnotic, lets the art breathe, and pulls you deeper into our world - We could've chosen any track from the album as the lead, but this one's the perfect explosive opener to our new era of beautiful darkness. I've never been more fired up. Crank it loud, join the weave, and let's build something unstoppable together", he continues on the animation video.
