A digital deluxe version of A Fortress Called Home by Seven Spires has just been released by Frontiers Music Srl, as has the new track featured on it, ‘House Of Lies (Acoustic)’, alongside an official video. All in advance of their European tour, that kicks off on October 17th in London.
Vocalist Adrienne Cowan commented:“’House Of Lies’ first spilled from my heart in this stripped-back form as a tender meditation on the knife’s edge between hope and grief. Sometimes a song speaks differently when its bones have space to breathe.”
About the digital deluxe release, guitarist Jack Kosto added: “When making an album, there are inevitably some ideas that get cut from the official release due to the limitations of CDs or other physical media. What a wonderful thing then that we live in a digital world where many of those limitations don’t have to apply! Over a year after the initial release, and in celebration of the imminent European tour, we’re happy to be releasing the deluxe version of ‘A Fortress Called Home’ on all of your favourite streaming platforms.”
The American symphonic metal band formed in 2013 at Berklee College of Music, these best friends forging their home in the darker corners of the melodic metal world. Known for their penchant for pushing genre limits, they draw influence from across the spectrum of metal and beyond, reaching ravenously into jazz, late Romantic-era orchestral music, and cinematic soundscapes.
A Fortress Called Home Digital Deluxe features the tracks: ‘A Fortress Called Home’, ‘Songs Upon Wine-Stained Tongues’, ‘Almosttown’, ‘Impossible Tower’, ‘Love’s Souvenir’,
‘Architect of Creation’, ‘Portrait of Us’, ‘Emerald Necklace’, ‘Where Sorrows Bear My Name’, ‘No Place For Us’, ‘House Of Lies’, ‘The Old Hurt of Being Left Behind‘ and ‘House Of Lies (Acoustic)’ – It is available here.
Seven Spires will be guesting on Sonata Arctica’s UK tour later this month.
