Swedish Dark Symphonic Metallers ELEINE, have unveiled details of their fourth full-length album. Appropriately titled “We Shall Remain”, ELEINE’s new opus marks their first full-length release through new label home Atomic Fire Records following their “Acoustic In Hell” EP (October 2022). “We Shall Remain” will be released on July 14th.
As an appetizer, the band has unveiled their first single off of the record, “We Are Legion” alongside a music video: An instant hit delivering chuggy riffs, an empowering chorus, and ELEINE’s signature battle vibe.
The band comments on the song: “The song is our way of honoring our fans. They have named themselves the Eleine Legion and they have been with us through thick and thin. They have shown us their dedication time and time again, so this song came naturally to us when we started the writing process of ‘We Shall Remain’. This is truly a Legion song to and for our fans. It’s a reminder of your own worth, to feel empowered and that you’re not alone!”
“We Shall Remain” was written and produced by guitarist/vocalist Rikard Ekberg and lead vocalist Madeleine Liljestam while Thomas “Plec” Johansson took care of co-recording, mixing and mastering at The Panic Room Studio in Skövde, Sweden. Its fiery artwork was designed by Nestor Avalos and Madeleine Liljestam.
Besides recently welcoming long-time live bass player Filip Stålberg as a new permanent member, ELAINE will embark on their very first North American tour next month. Accompanying legendary Portuguese Dark Metallers MOONSPELL on their 30th anniversary tour across the US and Canada, the band will play twenty-three shows from April 29th through May 23rd with additional support coming from OCEANS OF SLUMBER and VINTERSEA on select dates.
