‘The Grim Reaper’s Tears’ was issued as a single and offers a first glimpse into the band’s forthcoming album, that marks a new, darker chapter in their musical journey.
The band explained that ‘The Grim Reaper’s Tears’ delves into the intricate emotions and internal conflict of death personified as the Grim Reaper. The lyrics explore a character often feared and misunderstood, portraying him as empathetic despite being the harbinger of death. The song depicts him feeling the sorrow and anguish of those whose lives he claims, silently observing the devastation of war with deep sadness as he guides fallen souls to the afterlife
