Devon, UK based project Harifa led by Faye Davis has released a new single, “The Binding”, conjuring a bleak, autumn-soaked cut of atmospheric black metal. The track continues to build momentum after a busy year of EPs and an album that crossed raw aggression with mournful melody. The track is available to stream now below and on major platforms.
The song leans into the project’s core themes because it folds sorrow, sorcery, and falling leaves into tense tremolo lines and stark vocals.
Formed earlier this year, Harifa has already carved out a niche with releases like “Swinging From The Family Tree” and “When The Leaves Fall, I’ll Be Near.” In addition, recent posts teased “The Binding” as a key piece of the project’s ongoing fall cycle, hinting at more material on the horizon. The band’s pages describe Davis steering the sound toward raw, melancholic intensity with an independent grind.
If you want the full picture, start with “As The Pale Sun Fades,” then move into the new single. Meanwhile, keep an eye on Harifa’s socials for updates because the project has been steadily sharing studio snippets and presave links throughout the season.
