After more than 30 years of shaping Progressive Metal history, Evergrey rises again, announcing the release of their fourteenth studio album, “Theories of Emptiness,” set for release on June 07, 2024, via Napalm Records. This new chapter kicks off with the mesmerizing new single “Falling From the Sun,” featuring Heavy riffs combined with catchy choruses and hard-hitting melancholic lyrics, and acting as as a sequel to “Ominous” – cut from their worldwide chart-topping latest album, “A Heartless Portrait (The Orphean Testament).”
Guided by unmistakable founder, singer, and guitarist Tom S. Englund, Evergrey has maintained a remarkable consistency, hitting the biggest festivals worldwide, such as Wacken Open Air, Bloodstock, Summer Breeze and Graspop, and throughout thirteen studio albums. Each of these – blending dark, emotive themes with complex Progressive elements and Melodic Heavy Metal – has earned them a reputation as pioneers of the genre and secured their timeless mark on metal.

Evergrey on “Say”:
“’Say’ is one of those songs that immediately when we wrote the chorus we knew that it would be an awesome single. It will simply kill live and is a very worthy follow-up to the success of ‘Falling From the Sun’. Regarding the end of the video there will of course be questions, a lot of questions, we have the answers.”
“Theories of Emptiness” was produced by Tom S. Englund and Jonas Ekdahl, and was mixed by Adam “Nolly” Getgood (ex-Periphery), who worked closely with the band from the start – bringing out the vividness of the album’s overall sonic profile. Rounding out the album’s production, mastering was helmed by Thomas “Plec” Johansson (Soilwork, The Night Flight Orchestra, Onslaught, The Gems, Eleine and many more).
