ELUVEITIE Streams Super Catchy New Track “Awen”

Eluveitie is slated to release their new record Ànv on April 25, but before that they’d like to get really stuck in your head. Eluveitie is now streaming “Awen” alongside a music video directed by Mirko Witzki, and yeah – it’s an earworm.

“‘Awen’ is musically perhaps one of the album’s catchiest songs… sticking our necks out on pretty modern metal music, at the same time with a chorus coming in with that very traditional, mystically melancholic, solemn kind of ‘grandeur’, much like older Eluveitie songs such as ‘Of Fire’, ‘Wind & Wisdom’, ‘Slainia’s Song’ or ‘Alesia’,” said Eluveitie frontman frontman Chrigel Glanzmann.

“Lyrically it time-travels some fairly bold lines off that several thousand years old mythological text Ànv is based on, into the modern age and makes them speak directly to us and our modern civilizations! We’re really happy with and proud of it and we hope you’ll like it as much as we do!”

Pre-orders for Ànv are available here. Eluveitie also has a ton of European tour dates coming up with Arch Enemy, Amorphis, and Gatecreeper. Get those below and get your tickets here.
