ART GATES RECORDS
Conceptual modern metal band Astray Valley returns with their brand new single “Opium”, a haunting piece that captures the band’s signature blend of mystical storytelling, melodic depth and visceral heaviness.
Known for intertwining dark narratives into their music, image and performances, Astray Valley now dive into the consuming nature of addiction and obsession. “Opium” unfolds as both an intimate confession and a powerful outcry, where vulnerability collides with overwhelming intensity.
Driven by a hypnotic mix of soaring melodies and crushing gutturals, the song’s lyrical imagery speaks of hunger, control, and the search for release. It is a track that resonates with the struggle between desire and destruction, embodying Astray Valley’s ability to create music that is as emotionally evocative as it is sonically relentless.
