Swiss modern metal upstarts Illumishade have signed a worldwide contract with Napalm Records. Along with the signing, the band, fronted by vocalist Fabienne Erni and guitarist Jonas Wolf (both of Eluveitie), unveils their brand-new standalone single, entitled “Enemy“. You can watch the official music video below.

With the enchanting new track, the metal outfit delivers pure magic with a fresh dose of prog influences, transporting the listener into the band’s mystical world. The track goes in line with a visually palpable music video and marks the beginning of a new chapter for Illumishade.

“We want to take this moment to express our gratitude to each and every one of our fans for your support over the years. Your belief in us has been the driving force behind our growth.

“Thank you again for being a part of this journey with us. Here’s to a future filled with music, creativity, and a shared love for the arts.

“With immense gratitude and excitement, Illumishade”.

Napalm Records adds: “We are extremely happy to welcome onboard one of the most promising bands in the melodic metal scene of today! Illumishade amazes with their strong live performances, their personality and their unique sound – capable of blending together elements of djent, symphonic, progressive and more. They are definitely one of a kind, and we couldn’t be happier to start this journey together.“
