Rockshots Records and Lay Of The Autumn is excited to announce the release of their second single, “Flowing Tears” from their highly anticipated debut album “Of Love And Sorrow” out on October 25th, 2024.
Lay Of The Autumn is a new Symphonic Power Metal band led by Davide Scuteri (Ravenword, Choirs Of Veritas), featuring Iryna Boyarkina (ERIA, Mysterya), Michele Olmi (Chronosfear, Embrace Of Souls), Cesare Ferrari and Davide Lovecchio. Their debut album, featuring 10 emotionally charged tracks, merges the intensity of Power Metal with the grandeur of Symphonic Metal creating a deeply evocative listening experience.
Following the release of the instrumental track “Si Sta Come D’Autunno Sugli Alberi Le Foglie” (mixed and mastered by Simone Mularoni at Domination Studio) on last April 12, 2024, along with its music video, “Flowing Tears” serves as a compelling introduction to the album. From its melancholic piano notes, the song immediately draws listeners into the emotional core of Lay Of The Autumn. The lyrics explore themes of abandonment and heartache, comparing these feelings to a stormy sky pouring down rain.
Each track on the album has been meticulously crafted to deliver an epic and melodic experience reminiscent of the golden era of bands like Sonata Arctica, Stratovarius and Nightwish. With influences spanning Power Metal, Symphonic Metal, Melodic Death Metal and cinematic Soundtracks, the album offers a rich and diverse sonic landscape, highlighted by fast keyboard and guitar solos, catchy choruses and stunning melodies.
“Flowing Tears” is a standout piece that encapsulates the full spectrum of the band’s sound, blending sorrow with beauty in a way that is uniquely Lay Of The Autumn.
The album, mixed and mastered by Ettore Rigotti (Disarmonia Mundi) at Ettore Rigotti Studios, ensures a flawless sound that captures the melancholic and powerful essence of the band. Lay Of The Autumn offers a fresh yet familiar energy for fans of Symphonic and Power Metal, making this album a must-listen for anyone who values music that resonates deeply with the soul and stirs profound emotions.
The band invites all fans and metal enthusiasts to join them on this musical journey through the seasons of life, where they explore and celebrate both the light and the darkness.
