The Italian power prog metal band STRANGER VISION is thrilled to announce the release of Fly, the new single from their much-anticipated concept album FAUST Act I: Prelude to Darkness available today on all streaming platforms and in physical format. With this single, the band invites listeners on a musical journey exploring the mysteries and ambitions of Faust, a tragic and iconic figure symbolizing the universal human struggle for knowledge and redemption.
The band states: “Fly captures a crucial moment in the album’s narrative, when Faust, accompanied by Mephistopheles, immerses himself in the world to chase the joys and illusions of earthly life. With driving riffs and powerful orchestrations, Fly stands out for its expressive intensity, conveying the protagonist’s torment, as he’s overwhelmed by ambition and the inevitable pull toward what is fleeting and earthly.”
