French-Norwegian symphonic metal outfit SIRENIA recently announced the release of their exquisite upcoming tenth studio album, Riddles, Ruins & Revelations, out February 12, 2021 via Napalm Records. The 11-track album draws the listener deep into a versatile symphonic metal vortex through combining heavy sound with modern influences.

After releasing the album's first output, "Addiction No. 1", in late 2020, the four-piece around mastermind, bandleader, multi-instrumentalist, composer, songwriter and producer Morten Veland is ringing in the new year with another catchy yet smashing anthem! "We Come To Ruins" skillfully portrays SIRENIA's multifaceted nature and adds harshness to the record's characteristic elements, while transforming the "beauty and the beast"-concept into a modern yet dark atmosphere. Stamping guitar tunes are underlined by evil growls, ushered along by the vocal power of singer Emmanuelle Zoldan shortly after. This song is poised to move all the headbangers out there!

Morten Veland about "We Come To Ruins":
"'We Come To Ruins' is the second single from our upcoming album. This song shows SIRENIA from a heavier side, although it is a very dynamic song with many changes in both atmosphere and intensity. It is probably a more "typical" SIRENIA song than our first single, but still with a modern approach."

With Riddles, Ruins & Revelations, SIRENIA remains as true to their album title word-play as they do to their dedication to symphonic soundscapes, drawing the listener into a pounding narrative about the darkest aspects of life. All eleven songs accumulate step by step to an integral auditory artwork, where the versatile mezzo soprano voice of singer Emmanuelle Zoldan always shines in high-profile. In addition, there are many enchanting, instrumental surprises lurking along the way that absolutely need to be discovered.

The album opener, "Addiction No. 1", immediately showcases the modern and electronic direction SIRENIA are aiming in with their new epos, while "This Curse Of Mine", for example, bumps in with heavy riffs. On "Downwards Spiral", Emmanuelle is supported by the remarkable voice of longtime friend Joakim Næss on clean vocals, who has joined the symphonic metal outfit on previous releases. SIRENIA's tenth full-length ends with a cover of Desireless` 1986 hit "Voyage Voyage", where the unit again impressively combines symphonic sounds with electronic atmosphere, not only evident on this final epos, but on Riddles, Ruins & Revelations as a whole.

Morten Veland on the album:
"Riddles, Ruins & Revelations is SIRENIA's tenth studio album. The album is very diverse, as a SIRENIA album should be. There's a lot of material that shows the band from a new side, and there is lots of material that is to be expected from the band musically. All in all, the album will take listeners through a journey that will cover both familiar and unexplored musical landscapes. We hope that you will enjoy the journey."

1. Addiction No. 1

SIRENIA lanza visualizador para su segundo sencillo 'WE COME TO RUINS'

El grupo de metal sinfónico franco-noruego SIRENIA anunció recientemente el lanzamiento de su exquisito décimo álbum de estudio, Riddles, Ruins & Revelations, el 12 de febrero de 2021 a través de Napalm Records. El álbum de 11 pistas atrae al oyente a un vórtice de metal sinfónico versátil mediante la combinación de sonido pesado con influencias modernas.

Después de lanzar la primera producción del álbum, "Addiction No. 1", a fines de 2020, el cuarteto alrededor de la mente maestra, líder de banda, multiinstrumentista, compositor, compositor y productor Morten Veland está sonando en el nuevo año con otro himno pegadizo pero aplastante. ! "We Come To Ruins" retrata hábilmente la naturaleza multifacética de SIRENIA y agrega dureza a los elementos característicos del disco, mientras transforma el concepto de "la bella y la bestia" en una atmósfera moderna pero oscura. Las melodías de guitarra estampadas están subrayadas por gruñidos malvados, acompañados por el poder vocal de la cantante Emmanuelle Zoldan poco después. ¡Esta canción está preparada para mover a todos los headbangers!

Morten Veland sobre "We Come To Ruins":
"'We Come To Ruins' es el segundo sencillo de nuestro próximo álbum. Esta canción muestra a SIRENIA desde un lado más pesado, aunque es una canción muy dinámica con muchos cambios tanto en la atmósfera como en la intensidad. Probablemente sea una SIRENIA más" típica " canción que nuestro primer sencillo, pero aún con un enfoque moderno ".

Con Riddles, Ruins & Revelations, SIRENIA sigue siendo tan fiel al juego de palabras del título de su álbum como a su dedicación a los paisajes sonoros sinfónicos, atrayendo al oyente a una narrativa palpitante sobre los aspectos más oscuros de la vida. Las once canciones se acumulan paso a paso para una obra de arte auditiva integral, donde la voz versátil de mezzosoprano de la cantante Emmanuelle Zoldan siempre brilla en alto perfil. Además, hay muchas sorpresas instrumentales encantadoras acechando en el camino que es absolutamente necesario descubrir.

El abridor del álbum, "Addiction No. 1", muestra inmediatamente la dirección moderna y electrónica que SIRENIA está apuntando con sus nuevos epos, mientras que "This Curse Of Mine", por ejemplo, golpea con riffs pesados. En "Downwards Spiral", Emmanuelle es apoyada por la notable voz de su viejo amigo Joakim Næss en voces limpias, quien se ha unido al grupo de metal sinfónico en lanzamientos anteriores.

El décimo largometraje de SIRENIA termina con una versión del éxito de Desireless de 1986 "Voyage Voyage", donde la unidad vuelve a combinar de manera impresionante sonidos sinfónicos con atmósfera electrónica, no solo evidente en esta epopeya final, sino en Riddles, Ruins & Revelations en su conjunto.

Morten Veland en el álbum:
"Riddles, Ruins & Revelations es el décimo álbum de estudio de SIRENIA. El álbum es muy diverso, como debería ser un álbum de SIRENIA. Hay mucho material que muestra a la banda desde un nuevo lado, y hay mucho material que se puede esperar de la banda musicalmente. En general, el álbum llevará a los oyentes a través de un viaje que cubrirá paisajes musicales familiares e inexplorados. Esperamos que disfruten del viaje ".
