Symphonic metal unit Exit Eden have revealed their last single, entitled ‘Femme Fatale’, before their second album, “Femmes Fatales”, finally drops this Friday, January 12 via Napalm Records. “Femmes Fatales” arrives with twelve songs in total, half covers, half own compositions. The trio’s original composition and third single, ‘Femme Fatale’, was written by Anna Brunner and Hannes Braun (Kissin’ Dynamite) and is accompanied by a high quality official music video.
‘Femme Fatale’, as well as the album in its entirety, marks an illustration of strength and female empowerment topped with symphonic heaviness.
Exit Eden states: “When our paths initially crossed years ago, we were strangers and became friends, allies, sisters in crime…
“With the song ‘Femme Fatale’, we turned the tables, played with our own cards and established new rules. We set ourselves free from prejudice and limitations, embracing our true nature and femininity, regaining our power to stand as modern witches — resilient, liberated, we ARE Femmes Fatales.”
Self-confidently leading straight into the tempting world of Exit Eden, opening ‘Femme Fatale’, ‘Buried in the Past’ and ‘Hold Back Your Fear’ conjure a mystical atmosphere with strings and orchestral elements, topped by complementary vocals uniting the sonic diversity of the all-femme trio. ‘Dying In My Dreams’ and album closing ‘Elysium’ set the tone as captivating mid-tempo tracks with intense choruses that speak straight to the heart.
Moving further along the path where “Rhapsodies in Black” left off, Exit Eden picked the next selection of international super-hits, transforming them into their very own creation, yet still paying reverence to the originals on “Femmes Fatales”. ‘It’s a Sin’ (Pet Shop Boys), ‘Separate Ways’ (Journey), ‘Desanchantée’ (Mylène Farmer), ‘Poison’ (Alice Cooper), ‘Alone’ (Heart) and ‘Kayleigh’ (Marillion), re-arranged as undoubtably striking rock/symphonic metal compositions, form the common thread between the debut and “Femmes Fatales”.
