Blind Man's Daughter - 'Sundressed' (official music video)

We shine with stardust and dreams
In the taste of dawn sun the cloth the morning
Alone in night in the light
Light and dreams and sorrow filled wishing
Take the night sun and dressed in
All love or wanting
Hair blown gentle wind of time
So cold the heart yet warm with longing
Each light so bright each dressing
Please let me be your shadow
In the night before the dawn is taking
Shiver and face the morning
Sun the day in this close and ashen torn
Daylight breaks the past is yearning
In manner dust and spark is born
Gold and shimmer
Diamonds light
Dressed in vapor for the storms
A handful of temptation hold and held for you
Soft lips and curve the heartsong
Sundressed in light and morning dew
Sundressed in light and morning dew

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.»
