Atmospheric Swedish progger Jonathan Hultén marks his return to action with a mesmeric video for his brand new single, Afterlife.
The new single is the first new music to be taken from Hultén's upcoming album, Eyes Of The Living Night, the follow-up to his 2020 debut album Chants From Another Place, which he will release through Kscope Music on January 31.
“In Afterlife, your soul is pulled into the underworld, thrust into a labyrinth with no option but to navigate its cold corridors," exclaims Hultén. "Haunted by its ghostly inhabitant intent on draining your life energy, you must press forward.
“While going through this trial, you also discover hidden treasures along the way - important emotions and insights—that help guide you on your path through the seemingly endless night. When you finally reach the burning candle at the heart of the labyrinth, you realize that all along you were on a quest to find all those hidden treasures, and that they actually were things you had once lost—namely, parts of yourself."
Eyes Of The Living Night will be available on pearl blue vinyl, classic black viny, CD and as a digital album.
