UK melodic metallers PHOENIX LAKE have released a brand new single!
The new single, titled Bells Of Variel, is the latest offering from the band and marks their first new music since their appearance at this year’s Bloodstock Open Air. The track features Tristan Hill of AZAZEL, and was mixed and mastered by Pete Rutcho [PARKWAY DRIVE, FALLING IN REVERSE]. It is taken from their long-awaited debut studio album, Seraphina: The Fall From Eden, which is scheduled to be released in February next year, via self-release. More information about the debut album will be unveiled in due course.
Speaking about the new single, the band shares, “Bells Of Variel is track eight on the album, and it captures the darkest chapter in the story. Variel – the Angel of Death – appears, not as a guide, but as a punishment. He takes Michael, Seraphina’s lover, in a final act of heartbreak-fueled vengeance. It’s a moment defined by grief, rage, and the fallout of unrequited love.”
They continue, “The song is written from both Seraphina and Variel’s perspectives, drawing out the emotional tension between despair and fury. The bells that toll throughout act as a chilling omen—only heard by angels and beings beyond the mortal realm, signaling what’s to come. Musically, it’s one of the heaviest tracks on the album. Driven guitars set the pace, with tight drums and deep bass anchoring the rhythm. Synths add a cinematic edge that makes the whole track feel bigger and more intense.”
