HIRAES Premiere ‘Eyes Over Black’ Music Video
June 22nd, 2021

Osnabrück, Germany-based melodic death metal band Hiraes – featuring former members of Dawn Of Disease – have filmed a music video for the track ‘Eyes Over Black’, which can be viewed below.

Regarding the video, the band stated: “Aren’t we all starving for live concerts during this pandemic? With our brand new video for ‘Eyes Over Black’ we want to capture this feeling of being on stage again as well as giving you an insight of the energy and intensity that our future live shows will bring to the audience. We cannot wait to finally get back on stage and present our powerful, catchy and monumental songs from our debut album Solitary. Until the time finally comes again, enjoy ‘Eyes Over Black’ and hope with us that we will see each other on the road pretty soon!”

Hiraes issue their debut full-length studio album Solitary on June 25th, 2021 through Napalm Records. The outing will be made available in various formats and can be pre-ordered here.

The band commented: “Our debut album Solitary is the result of the collaboration of five musicians who burn with passion for melodic death metal. With its incredible emotional energy, it will captivate fans of the genre in no time. Hymn-like melodies and catchy riffing meet versatile drumming and the very varied growls of our singer Britta [Görtz]. The result is a unique blend of the best that melodic death metal has to offer. Rounded off by stunning sound, refined at Fascination Street Studios under the direction of Jens Bogren, and strong artwork by Costin Chioreanu, we are really more than satisfied with our first album. We can’t wait to finally present Solitary to the metal community on June 25, 2021!”
