The Essence of “Gone Epoch”
With its haunting melodies and nostalgic atmosphere, “Gone Epoch” invites listeners on an emotional journey back to their childhood. The band elaborates:
“Gone Epoch is our next single from the final chapter of the Reader of the Runes trilogy, showcasing our most folk and dreamy side. The song reflects on the loss of innocence and those carefree childhood days when life was simple, filled with fun and dreams. This theme resonates deeply with the stories of our eight characters, revealing layers of the narrative as we dive into this concluding chapter. The music embraces our love for folkloristic tunes while incorporating epic and heavy moments, reminiscent of our earlier style, making it a perfect candidate for live performances.”
