Former Burning Witches and Dead Venus singer, Seraina Telli’s new solo studio album, Green, has stormed to #1 in the Swiss album charts, the same pole position in her home country as her 2023 album Addicted To Color. She also celebrates her first chart entry in Germany hitting #88 at the time of writing.
Described as “personal, clear, and conceptually ambitious”, with Green, the Swiss artist is said to have undergone “a bold musical evolution”. The title is no coincidence: “Music appears in colours to me – and green is the first colour in a larger project,” Telli explained.
Thematically, the album revolves around responsibility – to others, the environment, and oneself. Musically, Green explores new territory, featuring more electronic elements and a deliberate move away from traditional rock arrangements. Telli’s songwriting takes centre stage, supported by producer Rico Horber, the result a collection of diverse, emotionally rich tracks that blend pop, alternative rock, and balladic depth combined with Telli’s crisp and distinctive sound.
Her lyrics span from social commentary on ‘Consequences’ through to deeply personal reflections ‘Gold’ and empowering anthems like ‘Let It All Out’, that call for self-expression and authenticity. Telli presents herself more vulnerable than ever, showing that true strength often lies in openness, and Green marks the beginning of a new creative chapter – a statement for more depth, consciousness, and sincerity in modern music.
Green is available on Metalville Records, who commented on the chart hit album stating: “Thank you to Seraina and her team! And of course, thank you to all our media partners who have supported the release of the album so wonderfully from the very beginning and helped make this dream come true!”
Tracks featured on Green are: ‘Let It All Out’, ‘Consequences’, ‘17’, ‘Home’, ‘Brown Eyed Boys’, ‘In Your Face Rock’, ‘Off’, ‘Love’, ‘Gold’, ‘Get Back’, ‘Oh Oh, Yeah Yeah’, and ‘Black & White’.
Out now, from the parent album, Seraina Telli’s latest single is ‘Let It All Out’, that’s been described as “a bold and electrifying anthem of self-expression” where “with raw energy and an unstoppable groove, the artist encourages you to freely speak your mind, never hold back the truth and show your true colours”.
With this track, Telli unveils a new facet of her songwriting skills. ‘Let It All Out‘ is intended as a powerful statement about believing in yourself, opening your eyes and mind, and embracing your truth.
Previous single ‘Home,’ was inspired by a deep sense of connection to family – the “family feeling”, as Telli herself calls it. It’s hardly surprising, then, that her family plays a central role in her life, and an important message that she received from her mother is at the heart of the song: ‘You can always come home, no matter what.”
Musically, Telli strikes a gentler note with ‘Home’ than listeners are used to from her. The song deliberately breaks away from her usual sound, is understated and atmospheric, with warm, soft sounds that leave room for many emotions. And yet it is not a classic ballad, rather, a song that speaks between the lines tending to linger in the mind.
For Telli, ‘Home’ is more than just another song – it is an emotional statement and at the same time the prelude to a new phase that begins with the upcoming album.
Previous to that release, on the single ‘Consequences’, Telli reflects on the responsibility that comes with public influence—and how disturbingly often that power is abused.
“I love observing people,” the singer explained. “And what stands out is how many with huge influence use it only for themselves instead of doing good.” This imbalance lies at the heart of the song: What does it truly mean to be a role model? And can you live with the consequences when millions follow your lead?
Musically, ‘Consequences’ is more raw and stripped down than her earlier work, placing deliberate focus on the acoustic guitar. “The song still rocks hard and forces you to move,” saidTelli. A particularly exciting detail: the hook was originally teased as a hidden track on her previous album Addicted to Color —now, it unfolds in full force.
