Norwegians Leprous have officially released 'Atonement', the first promotional cut from their eighth studio album, Melodies of Atonement which will be available from August 30 via InsideOutMusic.
“’Atonement’ es un tipo de sencillo diferente a lo que hemos hecho antes. Es pesado, pegadizo y va directo al grano. Es una canción que creemos que unirá a viejos y nuevos fans al mismo tiempo que tiene un sonido nuevo y fresco… Este es el sonido de Leprous en 2024”, dice Einar Solberg.
Below, you can see the official video for 'Atonement', recorded in Poland with director Dariusz Szermanowicz.
“The beginning of the songwriting process for the new album began right after our Aphelion tour in March of last year,” says Solberg. “The goal of that album was to remove all the orchestral elements and focus everything on the actual members of the band. I will delve into the symphonic parts later in my solo project. It's certainly a change for Leprous. The objective was to be more direct and purer, in a way, to highlight our qualities more while adding fewer external things.”
