FLIDAIS to release "Pathogen" in January!

Pathogen, the upcoming concept album, sees each song is based around a virus that turns out to originate entirely in the mind. Opening with the melody-fueled "Incursion", this instrumental introduction sets the scene for FLIDAIS' dynamic sound. "Obsession" sees traditional metal influences emerge with soaring vocals and distorted rhythms. The narrative here unfolds as motivation to fight the virus begins to fail allowing it to take hold. "Darkness" delivers a multi-textual offering with haunting low tones, minimalist instrumental parts that eerily build, and a shadowy mood. The manifestation continues in the form of the high-speed "Infection" and the intricacies of "Calamity". "Eradication" unleashes a ferocious onslaught of gloomy heavy, exploring a connection to the spirit world where the infected are given another chance for redemption. The penultimate "Reprisal" is a call to arms to fight against the terror of the Pathogen. Musically journeying through different atmospheres, including a sombre classical piano section, before returning to metal realms. The concluding "Departure" bookends the album with an acoustic guitar driven instrumental piece.

About FLIDAIS:
