Dragonforce singer Marc Hudson shares new video for “The Siren”

Author Hernan Osuna - 27.7.2023

Marc Hudson (DragonForce) has unveiled his second solo single, “The Siren“, together with an official music video. Napalm Records will release his innovative first solo full-length, “Starbound Stories”, on August 25. Watch the clip below.

Energetic “The Siren” is led by a tingling, uplifting melody and ballad-like vocals. The anime influences that have heavily inspired “Starbound Stories” are clearly present in the soundscapes of this track, and the story-like lyrics enchant the listener. The accompanying official music video takes the magical atmosphere of the song to the next level.

Marc Hudson comments: “With soaring melodies, an electronic pulse and a chorus bursting to life with J-pop sensibilities, ‘The Siren’ serves as a love letter to the nightlife of Japan, lighting up the sky with endless colours and possibilities.“

“Starbound Stories” is an uplifting journey through Marc Hudson‘s universe of power metal, anime, Japanese music and video game soundtrack influences, and features many great guest appearances. Pre-order “Starbound Stories” here.
