Subway To Sally has offered a moving ballad, "Herz in der Rinde", from its 15th studio album, Post Mortem, which will be released tomorrow via Napalm Records. The pioneers of German folk metal reveal a melancholic side, telling a story of love, loss, and memories. The poetic lyrics merge with the band's signature folk sound, accompanied by a stirring melody that explores the pain of a love that once seemed eternal but has since faded. The haunting imagery of the carved heart and the finality of loss make this song a deeply emotional highlight, building up with a powerful arrangement into an intense soundscape that culminates in a monumental conclusion.
Subway To Sally on its new single: "'Herz in der Rinde' is a song our fans will love - it's quintessentially us. Grand melodies, folk and violin sounds, lutes, paired with Eric's initially balladic vocals, collide with heavy metal guitars during the merciless finale of the story and the song. A piece like a great movie - that was our goal, and we are incredibly proud of the result!"
To celebrate the release of Post Mortem, Subway To Sally is currently on its annual "Eisheilige Nacht" tour, joined by Warkings, The O'Reillys & The Paddyhats and Harpyie - for more, follow HEREs. Link
