ART GATES RECORDS
THOLA announce their brand new upcoming album titled "UNSEEN" coming out worldwide on May 24th, 2024 through Art Gates Records!
The designer of the cover is Fabian Bieler.
This is what the album cover represents in THOLA's own words:
"The album title “UNSEEN” reflects the invisible voices and stories of those who are often overlooked or suppressed in our society. The shadows and suffering are increasing, the light (love) is losing its power and is being weakened worldwide. The cover symbolizes the little light in the darkness and yet this little light shines on the invisible voices and stories with the hidden message of the invisible ones behind them. Those who do not look away and look closely will recognize themselves in the light and the need of all people for justice, community and love. Through the powerful, emotional and epic music, the invisibility of these people is highlighted and their struggles and dreams are made audible. The album serves as a powerful reminder that everyone has a voice that should be heard, and that solidarity and empathy are the foundations for a fairer world.
The themes of oppression and the struggle for recognition and justice are highlighted in a powerful way."
The description of the new sound on this album in the band's own words:
"Our music is characterized by a fascinating combination of hard and melodic guitars, groovy drum & bass elements, spherical synthesizer sounds and a unique, catchy voice. This multi-layered mix creates a unique atmosphere that captivates listeners and takes them on a musical journey where the invisibility of people is highlighted and their struggles and dreams are made audible! A powerful listening experience that gives everyone a voice.
With a successful fusion of different stylistic elements, we present a diverse metal sound that is both catchy and powerful."
