SIRENIA currently released its exquisite tenth studio album, "Riddles", "Ruins & Revelations", via Napalm Records. The 11-track offering engages the devoted listener deep into a versatile symphonic metal vortex through combining heavy soundscapes with modern influences and showcases the multifaceted nature of the unit around, multi-instrumentalist, composer, songwriter and producer Morten Veland.


Their fourth single “This Curse Of Mine”. The song sets off with a fresh yet harsh riff attack and consecutive electronics, naturally leading a effective vocal presentation of operatic vocalist Emmanuelle Zoldan, whilst unfolding all its magic in a memorable, grooving chorus.


Morten Veland on “This Curse Of Mine”:

We are pleased to bring you a lyric video for the song 'This Curse Of Mine' taken from our brand new album Riddles, Ruins & Revelations. As touring is not an option these days we might as well be bringing you videos instead of shows. That being said, we really can't wait to see you all on tour again though. In the meantime, please enjoy 'This Curse Of Mine'. We hope you like it.”


Morten Veland on the album:

"Riddles, Ruins & Revelations is SIRENIA's tenth studio album. The album is very diverse, as a SIRENIA album should be. There's a lot of material that shows the band from a new side, and there is lots of material that is to be expected from the band musically. All in all, the album will take listeners through a journey that will cover both familiar and unexplored musical landscapes. We hope that you will enjoy the journey.”

A modern ride straight into the heart of symphonic metal!

Symphonic metal institution SIRENIA is renewed in darkness on their tenth studio album, Riddles, Ruins & Revelations. The quartet is certainly not afraid of combining a heavy symphonic sound with modern influences, which their latest record, Arcane Astral Aeons (2018) is proof of. This time, SIRENIA offer an sensational new twist to their songs, spicing them with electronic vibes, but never losing sight of their musical core.

SIRENIA remains as true to their album title word-play as they do to their dedication to symphonic soundscapes, inspiring the listener into a pounding narrative about the darkest aspects of life. All eleven songs accumulate step by step to an integral sound artwork, where the versatile mezzo soprano voice of singer EmmanuelleZoldan always shines in high-profile. In addition, there are many enchanting, instrumental surprises lurking on the way that absolutely need to be discovered! With the opening "Addiction No. 1" the formation mainly based in Norway delivers an immense and memorable tune that will have fans of bands like Beyond The Black and Amaranthe falling in love immediately. "We Come To Ruins" offers a contrast of harshness and skill fully portrays how SIRENIA combine the past and the present. On "Downwards Spiral", Emmanuelle is supported by the remarkable voice of long time friend Joakim Næss on clean vocals, who has joined the band on previous releases. SIRENIA’s tenth full-length ends with a cover of Desireless 1986 hit “Voyage Voyage”, where the unit again impressively combines symphonic sounds with electronic atmosphere, which doesn’t count only for this final epos, but for Riddles, Ruins & Revelations as a whole.
