Austrian symphonic metallers Edenbridge are currently gearing up for the release of their eleventh studio album “Shangri-La”, out on August 26, via AFM Records.
Nine epic, new tracks take the listener on a musical ride into the realms of finest symphonic metal. “Shangri-La” not only unleashes a sophisticated range of compositions along with an intoxicating and bombastic sound atmosphere the band is known and loved for, but Edenbridge has created their most diverse record to date. The band continually expand their musical expression from album to album without abandoning their trademarks. This time, they created a fine balance between emotionally magical moments, an ever-present mystical atmosphere and heavy, fast-paced riffage.
Edenbridge have premiered a music video for the new single “The Call Of Eden“.
Vocalist Sabine Edelsbacher comments:
“‘The Call of Eden‘ deals with power and manipulation.
The lie is sweet in the beginning, but bitter in the end. While the truth is bitter in the beginning but sweet in the end. Realise the allurement, manipulation and the exercise of power in the inside and the outside and neither become victim nor offender – combine the powers in your heart.”
