American guitarist, multi-instrumentalist, and composer Michael Abdow has released ‘Eternity’, the second single from his upcoming solo album, “Séance In Black” that will be released on October 6 via Couch Cat Records.
The artist comments on his new single, “Some say that at the moment our bodies expire, we relive all of the moments of our lives in an instant, and that these events happen separately in time”. Abdow continues, ‘Eternity’ is a song about all of these moments being one and that time is an illusion. It’s at the end of this ride that we experience and are reminded that our eternity is now.”
Michael is known internationally to the metal world for his guitar playing in the band Fates Warning, as well as with Ray Alder and Last Chance to Reason. “Séance In Black” serves as the Massachusetts native’s fifth solo effort. It follows previous solo albums, “Native Alien” (2010), “Life Symbolic” (2013), “E.S.O.” (2017), and “Heart Signal” (2020) which features legendary bassist Tony Franklin and drummer Shawn Deneault.
Speaking about the new album, Abdow had this to say: “I am inspired to explore what can be said, felt and experienced with music, and my only objective is to be as sincere as possible with my playing and writing. I’m not writing guitar solo music, but rather progressive rock music with guitar as my voice. More than ever, my voice as a soloist is an accessory framed by the story told in each of these songs.”
