Swiss band Eluveitie have unveiled their latest single, ‘Awen’, which is part of their new album, ‘ÀNV’, to be released on April 25, 2025 via Nuclear Blast Records.
“AWEN is musically perhaps one of the catchiest songs on the album… taking a bit of a risk with modern metal, but at the same time with a chorus that brings that traditional, mystical, melancholic and solemn grandeur, very similar to old Eluveitie songs like OF FIRE, WIND & WISDOM, SLANIA’S SONG or ALESIA. Lyrically, it travels back in time, bringing some bold lines from that several thousand year old mythological text that ANV is based on into the modern era and making them speak directly to us and our modern civilizations. We are very happy and proud of it and hope you like it as much as we do!” says Chrigel Glanzmann.
As the release of ÀNV draws closer, ELUVEITIE remains true to its roots as it explores new musical horizons. Billed as one of its most in-depth and serious albums to date, ÀNVpresents the result of over 20 years of intense involvement with Celtic mythology alongside spirituality and pagan knowledge within a modern generation. ELUVEITIE’s journey reflects true dedication and innovation, securing its place as a definitive presence within modern Metal.
