Eight years after melodic death/folk metal masters ELUVEITIE released their acoustic album “Evocation I”, the Swiss musicians have stored their electronic instruments again in the rehearsal room. “Evocation II – Pantheon” will be released on August 18th via Nuclear Blast Records. Last week, the band unleashed their first new song “Epona” and provoked some euphoric fan reactions.
But to guide you even deeper into their world of “Evocation II – Pantheon” and the new track, the band now unveils an info video about the background story and details of “Epona”. Check it out below.
„We’re super happy and proud to present you ‘Epona’ – the first single of our upcoming album ‘Evocation II – Pantheon’!”, states front man Chrigel Glanzmann. “The song is an ode to the riding goddess queen of the Celtic pantheon! And this not only lyrically. Also musically, for even though ‘Epona’ is an acoustic track, the song surges ahead with verve, power and speed and dashes like a galloping horse! It is a good song to give you a first glimpse of the raw, wild, honest, very folky and thoroughly celtic character of ‘Evocation II – Pantheon’!”
