Arcane Existence announce new album ‘Colossus’

ARCANE EXISTENCE have announced a new album!

Titled Colossus, the upcoming album from the California-based symphonic death metal band is their second full-length album and is scheduled to be released in August this year, via self-release.

The upcoming new album features artwork from German fantasy artist Nele Diel and the album was engineered, mixed, and mastered by Nick Loiacono at Fang Studios.

Speaking about the upcoming album, the band says, “Colossus is a journey through a mystical land following a cult’s quest towards reaching the Colossus castle. Each song paints a different phase of the cultists’ internal conflicts of breaking through their own mind’s illusions. The lore of Colossus is told through hauntingly angelic singing and inhumanly dynamic gutturals. Melodic piano and dramatic layers of orchestrations trace the lingering and thematic guitars that create the magical sound space. The foundation of Colossus is driven by the ritualistically thunderous drums and rhythmic dark bass. Colossus is an intense cultivation of ARCANE EXISTENCE’s sound and represents the collaborative effort as a full band for the first time.”

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released the first song from the upcoming new album; Sovereign Blood.
