Finnish melodic metal masters ARION are back with their new album, „The Light That Burns The Sky“.
ARION’s fourth studio album marking a new level of artistic maturity!
The album is energetic and in-your-face while retaining the band’s signature crisp production and several of their most compelling melodies.
ARION’s songwriting has reached new heights, with catchy hooks and intricate melodies that capture listeners from the first note. Guitarist Iivo Kaipainen stands out as a true virtuoso; while technical skill is commonplace, Kaipainen’s playing has a storytelling quality, and his solos are as expressive as they are masterful. His elite riffs and compelling solos add depth and intensity to the songs. They’re perfectly wingmanned by keyboard wizard Arttu Vauhkonen’s solos that blend technical precision with emotional depth, seamlessly integrating classical influences with modern metal. With his soaring melodic lines and fast-paced, virtuosic runs Vauhkonen adds to the band’s energy and enhances the overall impact of each track, elevating the band’s melodic and emotional storytelling.
The album features the well-aired single ‘Wings Of Twilight’ with Melissa Bonny of AD INFINITUM, blending seamlessly into ARION’s evolving style. Written by Iivo Kaipainen and produced and mixed by Matias Kupiainen (STRATOVARIUS), “The Light That Burns The Sky” is the album that will finally cement ARION’s place among symphonic metal’s elite.
