Arvika, Sweden Retro Rockers Children Of The Sün published the official video for the single “Lilium” taken from their third full-length album, “Leaving Ground, Greet The End,” which was just released on January 10, 2025 through the band’s own label Lovely Eyes Records. Watch the video through the YouTube player below:
“Lilium” talks about life and death. The way humans view and celebrate life and death in different ages and cultures, is something we found very fascinating while making this record. We watched some documentaries about cults in the tour van during our tour in Spain, and in the studio out in the country house. It would be easy to write about, and emphasize, death to make an impact (in a sign of the horns and skulls kind of way) but what all comes down to are those ancient questions. Life and death; as a concept; a shared factor.
With 2025’s longest album title so far, Children Of The Sün are back, and as usual, they bring with them the forces of nature, spiced with a touch of Rock‘n’Roll. The album was recorded in 2024 in a small cabin in the forests of Värmland.
Children of the Sün delivers a powerful sound that merges Rock, Blues and Folk Music into a timeless experience. With a mix of classic harmonies and gripping riffs, they create a psychedelic and soulful atmosphere that evokes feelings of freedom, love, and a deep connection to nature. Like a musical goulash of Fleetwood Mac and ABBA, the band offers a unique fusion of lightness and depth, both honoring and transforming Classic Rock Music.
Following a standout performance at the Sweden Rock Festival and the release of the music video for their catchy single »Come With Us«, their sophomore album »Roots« (The Sign Records, 2022) takes you on an emotional journey through life, with nature as a constant companion. The song »Leaves« ranked in the top five on Aftonbladet’s list of the best rock songs of 2022, and the band has been mentioned in publications such as Rolling Stone Magazine, affirming their presence and impact.
