Italian pagan/folk metal outfit and recent Reaper Entertainment signees ELVENKING have unveiled their latest single, “Throes Of Atonement.” The release is accompanied by a striking lyric video crafted by acclaimed artist René Berthiaume. The video perfectly captures the dark and emotional essence of the track.

The band comments, “‘Throes Of Atonement’ reflects a big part of the atmospheres and the mood of this third and final chapter of the Reader Of The Runes concept trilogy. It pays tribute to the epic power metal of the ‘90s, a significant influence for our early days to the extent that it could almost come out of our first album Heathenreel.

“This album delves into the past of the characters in this story, revealing the reasons behind the Reader Of The Runes’ wrath in the previous chapter. ‘Throes Of Atonement’ focuses on two characters, exploring adolescent jealousy and narrow-mindedness that ultimately leads to hatred and betrayal. For all the harm inflicted, whether intentional or unintentional, the ultimate punishments were penance and death.”

With “Throes Of Atonement,” ELVENKING once again showcases their mastery in storytelling, blending epic melodies with profound themes.
