Maraton embraces the unknown with their captivating and emotional new album “Unseen Color”!
Beautiful vocal lines and unexpected twists and hooks immediately hits you with Maratons new album “Unseen Color”.
A wonderful mix of alternative rock, pop and prog shows the bands immense ability to seamlessly blend genres and produce a unique and captivating sound.
“It´s always hard to know which songs are gonna end up on an album, and this time we ended up picking all the ones we initially didn’t think would fit on a Maraton album. All the weird ones, basically. Everything else fell into place after this and gave us the right vision we needed to guide us to the finish line. The album is about a lot of things, but most of all accepting the unknowns in life. Or rather, the unknowns that we don’t even know about. It’s a very personal and emotional album for me, which is a bit different from the more objective songs on our first album.”
