Incorporating extreme metal elements with classical influences and a progressive twist, Dreamslain perform their own unique interpretation of epic metal. Their new single ‘Burn The Boats’ will release on the 26th April 2023, offering a glimpse into the band’s second full-length album.
“We are happy to present our next single, 'Burn The Boats' to be released 26.04! The single deals with the destruction of traditional fishing vessels in the Mediterranean Sea, particularly in Greece, for the benefit of larger scale commercial fishing.”
Dreamslain deliver a powerful offering in ‘Burn The Boats’. Rich piano tones, thundering percussion and distorted guitars combine into an immersive and melodic sound. The single is enhanced further by Dreamslain's inclusion of a bass organ, and their intricate clean guitar interlude melodies bring further dynamic interest into the mix. Reaching almost ten minutes in length, this epic piece aptly conveys an emotive narrative through both their lyrics and composition. The contrasting clean vocals and brutal harsh complement the instrumentation and contribute to the mood of the song. ‘Burn The Boats’ builds on Dreamslain's previous releases seeing them push the boundaries of their sound and compositional style.
