Eye Of Melian have revealed the second video single, "Symphonia Arcana", from their upcoming album, Forest Of Forgetting, due on 20 February 2026 via Napalm Records.
"Symphonia Arcana" unfolds with mystical emotion, dynamic shifts, and dramatic orchestral beauty that captivates from start to finish. Unlike any other, the enchanting Tolkien-inspired project founded by Delain mastermind Martijn Westerholt blends symphonic, movie score-like grandeur with singer Johanna Kurkela's angelic vocals, conjuring an otherworldly, fantasy-inspired realm to lose oneself in. Completed by orchestral arranger Mikko P. Mustonen and backing vocalist and lyricist Robin La Joy, "Symphonia Arcana" serves as a mesmerising, sonic portal to the lush gardens of Lórien.
Robin La Joy about "Symphonia Arcana": "When I first heard the sweeping symphonic soundscape that is 'Symphonia Arcana', it felt as though the music itself was calling me into another world. Its lush, orchestral sound became like a enchanting spell, unfolding into an autumn wood of vibrant, otherworldly color. The lyrics arose from following that call — letting the music, and the longing within it, lead me beyond the veil into mystery and renewal."
