Arion, who released their previous album The Light That Burns The Sky just over a year ago, has not rested on their laurels, but have released a new single Hurricane, which also kicks off the band’s fifth album cycle. The new studio album will be released sometime next year.
Rushing forward like a train, Hurricane is guaranteed Arion quality: Energetic with a catchy chorus and skillful guitar playing.
“We are incredibly pleased to be able to release new music so soon after our latest album. Hurricane is a modern melodic metal song with a surprising twist that proclaims a message of empowerment and invincibility. The chorus hook and massive breakdown make this song a real live hit, and we can’t wait to perform it live!”, the band says.
In recent years, Arion has toured extensively in Finland and around the world, with bands such as Dream Theater and Brainstorm. Next fall, the band will embark on a comprehensive European tour with Gloryhammer and Majestica, covering the continent’s most important metal markets. Before that, the band will be seen playing a gig with the band Tarot and at summer festivals.
