Today marks the release of Chronosynthesis’ powerful new single “Gashadokuro“ – available across all digital streaming platforms along with an official lyric video.
The track offers another thrilling preview of their upcoming debut album Echoes of Forlorn Tales (May 2025), following their February single “A Bird of Gold”.
Chronosynthesis deliver classic power metal that pays homage to the glorious 90s style, while expanding it with influences ranging from traditional metal to 70s rock, all enriched with orchestral arrangements.
“Gashadokuro” brings us closer to Chronosynthesis’ highly anticipated debut album “Echoes of Forlorn Tales”, set for release in May. Following February’s first single “A Bird of Gold”, this new track immerses us in the album’s unique atmosphere – a powerful, modern reinterpretation of classic fairy tales from Europe and beyond.
The album takes listeners on a journey through melodic power metal and symphonic soundscapes, where each song comes alive through crushing riffs, epic choirs, and lush arrangements. Born from a desire to celebrate the stories and melodies that accompanied our childhoods, it presents them through a fresh, engaging approach that speaks to today’s audience.
“Gashadokuro” in particular transports us into Japanese folklore with its dark tale of a soul-devouring yokai, showcasing the album’s ability to bridge diverse cultures and traditions. It’s the perfect preview of what awaits – an album that combines metal’s raw power with the timeless magic of storytelling.
With just weeks remaining until “Echoes of Forlorn Tales” arrives, anticipation grows with each single. If you love concept albums that transport you to other worlds, this is a journey you won’t want to miss.
