The Circle announce debut album ‘Metamorphosis’

THE CIRCLE have announced their debut album!

Titled Metamorphosis, the upcoming album from the German-blackened art metal duo is their debut full-length album and is scheduled to be released in April this year, via self-release.

The upcoming album is a concept album, featuring four tracks, that are reflecting four chapters: Fear, despair, wrath and salvation. The band plans to release a music video for each album track, and to create a kind of a short four- chapter movie.

Speaking about the upcoming debut album, the band says, “we are proud to announce the release of our first opus Metamorphosis. We will take you on a journey exploring the darkest corners of your inner self under the sign of art metal – the genre that comprises the beauty of black metal, haunting melodies and depth of melodeath enriched by cinematic elements. Together we will reach emotional rebirth. Metamorphosis is just the beginning of a long path…”

Alongside the announcement of the debut album, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; Chapter II: Verzweiflung.
