Title: Shadows
Artist: The Enlightened
Release Date: March 7th 2014
Producer: Bill Owens
Genre: Symphonic Extreme Metal
Length: 6:19
Label: Starr Records
Formats: CD, Digital Download, Limited Vynil





Shadows is the debut single from Swedish Metal band The Enlightened, it's taken from the band's first album, The Arcanum Cirlce, to be released this 2014. It is the first official release by the Swedish trio and it is availalbe through Starr Records in three formats: CD, Digital Download and Limited-Edition 7" Picture Vynil. The CD and Vynil formats include a 12-minute audio of an exclusive interview with the band members.

The song was written by Tom Orgsen and was recorded at the Rever Studios (London) this last January. It was produced by one of Orgsen's best friends, the british producer, musician and artists, Bill Owens.

This single marks the return of Tom Orgsen to the scene, making his first release since REÄLM's Our Lord Shall Rise single which was released in September 2011.

"We're really excited with this single. It's our first official release so we are nervous, but we know we did a great work and I really like this song...It's one of the most 'commercial' tunes on the album so it was a good choice to release it as the first single. Talking about the song itself: I wrote it like one year ago and it's highly-influenced by REÄLM's style. The lyrics are based on a dream I had...One night I was having serious problems to sleep and when I could do it, I just slept for some minutes and had an horrible dream, it was really weird...I never found an explanation to it. It was a really strange nightmare and after waking up very disconcerted, I decided to start writting the lyrics."





Lyrics:

A vision is trapped inside my crystal ball
Just close the door, don't live in the dark
Sleeping passion lies on a frozen ground
Strong feelings can be found within our hearts
Soon they'll come out again.

Everything around me makes me see life clearly now.
The other side belongs to my past.
Sleeping passion lies on a frozen ground
Strong feelings can be found within our hearts
Soon they'll come out again.

Look inside of me
In my hands you'll find a new world
The abyss of my existence
Wants to make me sleeping its cold shadows.

This is my story
I sacrificed all my dreams
just to live my last hope.
Sleeping in the shadows

Creatures with dark thoughts
Living in this illusion
Try to wipe my deepest feelings
That are written in my soul and heart
Giving strength to carry on.

Beyond all the pain I suffered
memories keep me awake now
it seems to be the only choice
so as not to fall asleep once more
In the shadows I will get lost!
