Blind Man's Daughter - 'Saeancer' (music video)

The night is getting dark

I can't get the image from my head
I can see the anger in your eyes
I roam and forget the war
I speak to worlds within my soul

Wield soul fire in your palms

I see that you are gone
But tonight is our time to rise
Forget the past and live again
Let the gods scream

We are the children of the night
Together we can reach the stars

Fill our lungs as the earth groans and beckons
See the sky scream covered in blood

You've finally got your weapon
These scars and sky takes my spirit

But you will never win
Saeancer come we can live
Hiding and hunting for prey

I was born to hold the message
I believe I’m lost again
I am dead or alive or do I transcend
Saeancer brings sight and shows the way

Νέο συγκρότημα οι Blind Man's Daughter. Μας έρχονται από την μεγαλύτερη πόλη στην πολιτεία του Νέου Μεξικού (Αλμπουκέρκη) και διεκδικούν την δική τους θέση στο progressive metal μουσικό σύμπαν. Ας τους αφήσουμε να μας παρουσιαστούν:

«Blind Man’s Daughter is a melodic progressive metal band from Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA. Working with local musicians and writing songs at a furious pace Blind Man’s Daughter grew from a studio project to one of the most exciting new sounds in the metal scene.

In just the few months between November 2022 and February 2023 the album Sundressed was completed. Blind Mans’s Daughter has created a cutting edge, melodic progressive metal sound that is entirely fresh yet has deep ties to progressive rock and metal music history.

Ashley’s lyrics and vocals convey complex emotion with lyrical depth, clarity of thought and surprising feeling. The lead vocals are sometimes smooth and flowing, sometimes growling, sometimes soaring and at other times close and soft.

The music is progressive and heavy yet is also sometimes intimate and has elements of metal, rock, and more. These influences combine to become a style that is compelling and unique.»

Το ντεμπούτο τους φέρει τον τίτλο "Sundressed" και κυκλοφόρησε το περασμένο καλοκαίρι (18 Αυγούστου 2023) μέσω της δισκογραφικής εταρείας Heavy Metal Records, με το δελτίο τύπου να μας δίνει τις λεπτομέρειες:

«Sundressed’ is the debut album from Blind Man’s Daughter, a band from Albuquerque, New Mexico that combines soaring melodies, complex rhythms, and heavy guitar riffs to create a unique blend of progressive metal.

Lead singer and songwriter Ashley Wolfe shares her personal journey of self-discovery and the search for purpose, with lyrics that explore themes of longing, perseverance, and the beauty of living in the moment. Helen Keller once said, “Life is either a daring adventure or it is nothing” and to this point, ‘Sundressed’ is the story of Ashely Wolfe’s life, her grand adventure.

A story of obstacles, acceptance and overcoming. To understand that the beauty of life is the moment we are in, and to be immersed in sunlight is a choice made with each tick of the clock. Musically, ‘Sundressed’ features a cutting edge, melodic, progressive metal sound that draws on the rich history of progressive rock and metal.

Taking influence from greats such as Skyharbour, Tesseract, Plini and Dream Theater, this album showcases Blind Man’s Daughter’s ability to seamlessly blend different musical styles and moods.

From the smooth vocals and intricate guitar lines of ‘Mirage Harmer’ to the haunting atmosphere, incredible vocal range and heavy riffs of ‘Saeancer’, ‘Sundressed’ is a dynamic, multifaceted work of art that every metal fan should experience. Ultimately, Sundressed is a celebration of life’s highs and lows, and a testament to the power of music to inspire and uplift us even in the darkest moments.»
