Acolyte have announced their new album Entropy, due for release on 14th May 2021 via Wild Thing Records and Blood Blast Distribution.
To celebrate, the Australian cinematic metal quintet have released a video for their new single Clarity, featuring Ben Rechter of Circles.
“Rock bottom; Clarity provides warmth in our darkest hour. I wrote this song from the point of view of someone at their very lowest point, not knowing where to go, what to do or who to turn to. On the bathroom floor, broken; alone; after staring into a mirror, and not recognising the reflection they see any longer,” explains vocalist Morgan-Leigh Brown.
“Featuring Ben Richter from Circles, this track offers a sense of helplessness and sadness. Ben and I present a conversation between two voices in one mind, warm and cold, reaching a pinnacle of raw, desperate, sadness before coming back down to a resolution, ‘I can let it go’. When I sent the track to Ben, I discussed with him that I was searching for someone who could deliver a very warm and nurturing vocal that would contrast my tormented, insecure delivery. Ben is so talented and just knew exactly what I was after. The result speaks for itself and is one of my favourite instalments on the record.”
