The Erinyes have released Hide And Seek, the song that gives its name to their second album, which Frontiers Music puts out on 18 December.
Five weeks between a first single and the record is short by any standard and very short for a symphonic metal release, where the run up usually takes a season. It suggests the album was finished a while ago and held.
The band is an international project rather than a group from one place, which is how Frontiers has assembled several of its symphonic acts, and the second album arrives without the long gap that usually follows a debut of this kind.
The song came out with a video carrying the words on screen rather than a filmed one, which is the cheaper half of the format and tells you the budget is going into the record.
Frontiers is a label people associate with melodic rock rather than with anything heavy, and its symphonic roster has been the quieter half of what it does for years. A December release date puts this one in the week most labels avoid entirely.
