LIV SIN have announced a new album!
Titled Close Your Eyes, the upcoming album from the Swedish heavy metal band is the follow-up to 2023’s KaliYuga, and is scheduled to be released in August this year, via their new home at Seek & Strike.
The upcoming album was mixed by the renowned Tue Madsen, known for his work with BABYMETAL and MESHUGGAH.
Alongside the announcement of the new album, LIV SIN have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; the title track Close Your Eyes. The new song features a guest appearance from Lars Palmqvist of SCAR SYMMETRY.
Speaking about the new song, and its accompanying music video, the band shares, “we chose the album’s title track, Close Your Eyes, as the first single/video for mainly two reasons. We got the amazing vocalist, Lars Palmqvist from SCAR SYMMETRY, to join us, and the song has a straight up melodic chorus that everyone was instantly hooked on.
The song also has a darker edge to it, since it covers the topic of human trafficking. Liv got the idea for the lyrics after watching a documentary about people being tricked into trafficking across eastern Europe.
In the video, we tried to recreate the feeling of being all alone in a dark room with different strangers coming and going. Liv sings and screams out her inner frustrations reflecting on the world today with a deep longing for a better world.”
