Enemy of Reality – Greek Symphonic Metal Band Announce New Album  “Where Truth May Lie”
Share Music Video For New Track “Serenade of Death”

Greek symphonic metal act Enemy of Reality will release their highly anticipated third full-length album “Where Truth May Lie” on February 24th via Vinyl Store.

The follow-up to the band’s 2016 second album “Arakhne” is another full concept album, this one based on a fictional story involving a Priest in ancient Greece, who is trying to find an answer for certain tragic events that destroyed his life, while several mythical forest creatures (known from Greek Mythology as Satyrs) claim that the only truth is hidden in music, dance, wine and erotic pleasures. To achieve a unique mix of sounds, the band recorded on several songs parts from certain traditional string instruments, as well as an ancient Greek wind instrument (Avlos), that is seen in various ancient portraits as played by ancient Greeks and mythical creatures. Pre-orders are now available at this location.

Today, the band shares a music video for leading single “Serenade of Death”, which tells the story of a tragic event when a mother and daughter were lost into the flames of their worship; their praying mutters becoming their eulogy when the fire of their offering candles sealed their fate. Ashes and piles of coal was what remained of them when the tragic father returned, the Priest. How ironic to be denied all you ever loved by the same gods you worship. Manic laughs and cries escaped his mouth as he knelled upon the ashes of all he held dear. This funeral pyre burnt out his faith.
