New album “Crown of the Clairvoyant” pre-orders available via The Circle Music
Neoclassical and darkwave veterans Autumn Tears have unveiled a music video for a new track, “The Knell Of My Birth Hymn”, off their upcoming album, “Crown of the Clairvoyant”. The track and video features Francesca Nicoli from the revered Italian neoclassical band Ataraxia.
The video was premiered via Terra Relicta and can be watched here: https://terrarelicta.com/publications/news/autumn-tears-premieres-profound-new-single-video-the-knell-of-my-birth-hymn
The lyrics of “The Knell of my Birth Hymn” cover profound themes, with lines such as “There is no stillness beneath the sun / And I feel brave to have touched the sky” and “My blood trickles upon a golden rose / Its petals hold fast against angry winds”. The track evokes a sense of both the ephemeral nature of existence and a quiet strength, culminating in imagery like “Serene and majestic is my garden grave”.
The release of “The Knell of My Birth Hymn” is the second video from the upcoming album following the release of “The Light That Shapes Us”. The new album is set to be released on 22 September via The Circle Music and is a continuation of the concept started with their 2023 album, “Guardian of the Pale”.
“Crown of the Clairvoyant” features a fully orchestrated classical ensemble and full choir. The album includes contributions from original Autumn Tears composer, pianist, and lyricist Ted Tringo, classical and opera duet Caroline Joy Clarke and Darren Clarke (Trovatori), singer-songwriter Tamar Singer (Zeresh, Cruel Wonders, Necromishka), and violinist and violist Sanja Smileska. The album also features a guest appearance by Francesca Nicoli from the Italian neoclassical band Ataraxia.
The album will be available as a digital download, a limited CD jewel case package with a CD-exclusive bonus track, and a limited vinyl package which includes a 12-page illustrated lyric book and a vinyl-exclusive bonus track.
