Solemn Vision releases new single!

Solemn Vision encompass all that metalheads around the globe love: speed, power, heaviness, and musicality. The New York quintet’s sound is for fans of Opeth, Daath, At The Gates and Insomnium. Previously known as Spectral Voices, the band members are not shy of bringing in their influences to the composition, resulting in Scandinavian style melodies and verses going hand in hand with middle eastern rhythms and death metal riffs, with plenty of technicality on the instruments. The result is a unique, hard, melodic death metal that gained large amounts of fans in the tri-state area in the last 4 years.
