Haken: ascolta il nuovo brano, “The Last Lullaby”
Comunicato stampa:
Gli HAKEN sono attualmente in tour in Europa per la promozione del loro ultimo lavoro “Fauna”, partecipando a svariati festival come Download Festival, Z Rock, Loudfest e Graspop.
Oggi la band è lieta di presentare un nuovo brano intitolato “The Last Lullaby”, originariamente presente come traccia bonus solo nella versione giapponese dell’ultimo album: https://youtu.be/Sg_
Il brano è disponibile su tutte le piattaforme streaming: https://haken.lnk.to/
Il commento della band:
“‘The Last Lullaby’ è il prosieguo di ‘Eyes of Ebony’, essendo basata sul tema principale della traccia di chiusura di Fauna. Il nostro tastierista Pete è stato lasciato libero di agire, con le sue abilità di produzione, riorganizzando e aggiungendo nuovi strati per creare un brano con un tocco diverso dal resto dell’album, essendo più vicino all’elettronica che al metal, catturando la qualità emotiva del disco e fornendo un epilogo perfetto.”

‘Fauna’ sees the band exploring new ideas conceptually as Ross continues. “The premise of the album when we started writing it was that every song would have an animal assigned to it. They all have something related to the animal kingdom that we could write about, but they also connect to the human world. Each track has layers, and some of them are more obvious than others.”
“It reminds me of The Mountain,” adds guitarist and fellow founder Richard Henshall. “There, we had the idea of not really a narrative-based album, but more the concept of climbing a mountain and overcoming the obstacles along the way. Then we took that and thought about how it could relate to our everyday lives. All of Fauna’s animals relate to us, personally.”
‘Fauna’ also marks the return of keyboard player Peter Jones, whose sounds can be heard permeating the entire album. “What Pete’s brought sonically to the band has played a massive role in why we do have a lot of new sounds on this record,” says Ross. “It’s always a new dynamic when there’s a change in personnel, and this is a fresh and reviving one. It’s certainly helped proximity-wise, with Pete being in the country: Pete and Ray [Hearne, Haken’s drummer] would be at Rich’s place and they’d just start jamming. That’s really key to how the songs start.”
