Dutch metal band BLACKBRIAR has released a new single, “A Last Sigh Of Bliss”, alongside an accompanying music video. The song details a tragic romance between someone living, and someone deceased.
“A Last Sigh Of Bliss” will appear on BLACKBRIAR‘s new album, “A Thousand Little Deaths”, which will be released on August 22 via Nuclear Blast Records.
BLACKBRIAR vocalist Zora Cock comments: “As the scent of honeysuckle drifts into your bedroom window on a warm summer’s night, this song intoxicates you into a fever dream. Like a bee drowning in honey, you know you’ll die, and yet, you ache for nothing more. It’s a sultry, seductive, and euphoric song with heavy guitars and a chorus that makes you want to run barefoot through a moonlit field in a lace gown.”
