Evergrey

[MindRuler]

New Evergrey song!

 

[Vaenyr]

Listened to it the other day and it didn't do anything for me. I'm afraid that's one of the songs I'll rarely return to, probably only if I'm listening to the entire album (once that releases).

(also, I have not forgotten about my Theories Of Emptiness review, life's been kinda busy!)

 

[MindRuler]

It still needs to click with me too.
Edit: I will give a song review after more listening sessions.

 

[MrKnickerbocker]

The song also does nothing for me. The chorus feels disconnected from the rest of the song.

6. Still Breathing

Oh, that one's definitely on there! It's used a few times in other songs like Faith Restored, but very prominently in Numb. There are certain phrases or words that keep popping up, so this might be one of them lol

(Also stuff like, ... and the Distance - Distance, The Storm Within - The Night Within, End of Silence - Our Way Through Silence)

Damn, no matches at all! Cool artwork though. The title is kinda weird though. Is it going to be about a hair salon?

Interesting note: OXYGEN! is now being called a "standalone" song and is not part of the album.

 

[Vaenyr]

Yup, impressive that he got the release date, arguably the most difficult one to get right!

I noticed that Oxygen is missing, and honestly? I'm glad. That song did nothing for me. Hopefully the album is going to offer a bit of variety and go in a different direction. I'd rather not get the same song repeated 12 times.

It's released the same week as Theories Of Emptiness but 2 years later.
But happy with the point lol.

Anyway looking forward to the album!

It grew on me after several spins. Still need to write the review here...

Agreed! The artwork looks promising so let's hope same goes for the songs.

Read this on Blabbermouth:

"Among other exclusive formats, "Architects Of A New Weave" comes with a bonus album, containing bonus tracks "Heights" and "One Heart", as well as an album mix of the previously released standalone single "Oxygen!" (2025). Additionally, it features a demo version of "Longing", instrumental tracks of "Leaving The Emptiness", both new songs, as well as a live version of "Falling From The Sun", the hit single off the previous record, "Theories of Emptiness" (2024) and continuation of "Ominous" off "A Heartless Portrait (The Orphean Testament)" (2022)."
