Taken off the album “Beyond The Aeons“ (July 5th, 2024) 🎧 Stream, get it here: Octoploid is the brainchild of Amorphis-Bassist Olli-Pekka ‘Oppu’ Laine. Having a long history as a songwriter himself, it’s been a dream since his early youth to dive deep into a pool of musical influences and melt them together into what culminated as his new band’s debut work “Beyond The Aeons”. Mixing many different styles may seem a far stretch, but all these musical vibes, that also attracted several illustrious guest musicians to contribute their special touches, end up blending together in a well-rounded sonic cast. “The Dawns In Nothingness“ is an unlikely marriage between Black & Death metal, Rock and medieval monk chants. Even though the texts are very personal, the gloomy lyricism is not always to be taken literally. That's just a part of the classic doom Metal ethos in its finest!“ says Oppu. 🎧 Stream, get it here: ▶ FOLLOW @REIGNING PHOENIX MUSIC 🛒 Web YouTube Instagram Facebook X TikTok Spotify ▶ FOLLOW @OCTOPLOID Facebook: Instagram: Twitter: TikTok: @octoploidmusic Music & Lyrics: Olli-Pekka Laine Recorded & mixed by Petri Majuri at E-Studio Finland Produced by Olli-Pekka Laine Mastered by David Castillo at E-Studio Finland Video produced, directed and edited by: Pete Voutilainen (One Eye Media Oy) Cinematography and lights: Pete Voutilainen, Nadi Hammouda OCTOPLOID is: Mikko Kotamäki - Lead Vocals on ‚The Dawns In Nothingness' Peter Salonen - Guitars Kim Rantala - Keyboards Olli-Pekka Laine - Bass, keyboards, backing vocals Mikko Pietinen - Drums, percussion Lyrics: Desperation casts a shadow to the new beginning Time is slipping underneath the skies you were to glide in Fifth is the blood that never shall be spilling Second is the circle that may close no more And the seed of hatred did I sow To the earth I drowned thy glory To rid the curse of tomorrow The dawns in nothingness Like a ship adrift on the wind Chasing the day Fleeing the circle of life A moment to wonder whether to live or die Misery over the dawns in nothingness And the seed of hatred did I sow To the earth I drowned thy glory To rid the curse of tomorrow The dawns in nothingness Pandemonium Stream of light electric Immortality Eternally to die for Sanctimony Soul torn into pieces Lost illusion A newborn imagination Dawns in Nothingness Desperation casts a shadow to the new beginning Time is slipping underneath the skies you were to glide in Fifth is the blood that never shall be spilling Second is the circle that may close no more And the seed of hatred did I sow To the earth I drowned thy glory To rid the curse of tomorrow The dawns in nothingness Like a ship adrift on the wind Chasing the day Fleeing the circle of life A moment to wonder whether to live or die Misery over the dawns in nothingness And the seed of hatred did I sow To the earth I drowned thy glory To rid the curse of tomorrow The dawns in nothingness Pandemonium Stream of light electric Immortality Eternally to die for Sanctimony Soul torn into pieces Lost illusion A newborn imagination #Octoploid #TheDawnsInNothingness #BeyondTheAeons #RPM #ReigningPhoenixMusic
