BURN DOWN EDEN have announced a new EP!

Titled Epiphany, the upcoming EP from the German melodic death metal band is the follow-up to April’s Dismal EP, and is scheduled to be released in December this year, via Seek & Strike.

Speaking about the upcoming EP, the band shares, “with the Epiphany EP, we pick up right where we left off with the Dismal EP released earlier this year. The technical and musical level is higher than ever. Epiphany has the same overall dark vibe as Dismal, but with a slightly brighter touch to it, which is why these specific five songs were chosen to be on this second EP. Together, the two EPs result in the desired full-length album.

Once Epiphany drops in full on Dec 6th, you’ll finally be able to listen to it as a full-length album, which was the way we originally envisioned. It feels like one thrilling flow from start to finish or you can listen to both EPs back to back. It doesn’t matter! In the end, what you’re having is a cauldron full of technical death metal riffs, neoclassical shredding, exotic scales, clever harmonies, groovy headbangers, lethal high-speed blasts and atmospheric counterpoint black metal layers garnished with lyrics that show the ugly face of humanity. That’s what BURN DOWN EDEN is all about!”

Alongside the announcement of the new EP, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming EP; Epistrophy.

Speaking about the new song, the band shares, “the first single, Epistrophy, is about a side quest in the game Cyberpunk, where you have to re-establish the protagonist’s connection with seven different rogue vehicles. Nerd shit, haha. You can quickly tell that this EP starts a little bit brighter. Can’t be death and slaughter all the time! Its video to the song supplements the whole theme of just having fun and leaning into the good times.”
