Continuing the thematic journey established in the first single, "Deathlike Silence", "When The Fire Dies" explores the darker realms within Finnish-Australian metal quartet The Eternal's sonic landscape. The track comes from the band's impending album, Skinwalker, set for release on 28 June via Reigning Phoenix Music (RPM).
Graced by the stellar performances of Dutch cellist Elianne Anemaat (Celestial Season) and Russian vocalist Emily Saaen, a long-time collaborator of the group, the band's third single delves deeper into the doom aspects of their sound, crafting a slow-burning and emotionally charged narrative. The poetic storytelling of the track is accompanied by a band video of haunting beauty, scripting the transformation and renewal amidst the ashes of fading flames.
Drummer Jan Rechberger (Amorphis) notes: "Imbued with an ethereal quality, Mark [Kelson]'s vocals serve as a beacon of hope amidst the dense and atmospheric soundscape. His haunting delivery adds layers of complexity, evoking a sense of vulnerability and introspection".
"Lyrically, 'When The Fire Dies' confronts the profound emotions of loss and confusion that accompany the gradual drift between two individuals. The song serves as a cathartic expression of grief, delving into the raw and tumultuous journey of acceptance and letting go", adds mastermind Mark Kelson.
