ECHOES OF ETERNITY: New Song Posted Online

September 3, 2009

Los Angeles female-fronted progressive metallers ECHOES OF ETERNITY are streaming a new song, "Twilight Fires", on their MySpace page.

Commented guitarist/songwriter Brandon S. Patton: "When we wrote this song, we asked ourselves, 'What would it sound like if Francine [Boucher, vocalist] was singing for MORBID ANGEL or DISSECTION?' This is what we came up with. It has a definite black metal/death metal feel to it. I don't think anyone's ever heard this type of female vocal with blast beats and double bass drumming in a context quite like this. It's dark, seductive and powerful! The way Francine belts it out on this song blows my fucking mind and everyone in the band loves the middle section of the song, where there is a slower 'gallop-picked’ riff that is mean as fuck."

"Twilight Fires" comes off ECHOES OF ETERNITY's forthcoming second album, "As Shadows Burn", which is scheduled for release in North America on September 22 via Nuclear Blast Records (the LP will be issued in Europe on September 25 through Massacre). The follow-up to 2007's "The Forgotten Goddess" was produced and mixed by former MACHINE HEAD/SOULFLY guitarist Logan Mader, who has previously worked with GOJIRA, DIVINE HERESY, FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH and CAVALERA CONSPIRACY.
