Italian symphonic metal act Moonlight Haze has shared the second single/video, "Chase The Light", from its upcoming fourth studio album, Beyond, due on 23 May via Scarlet Records.
"Chase The Light" is an incredibly uplifting and direct metal anthem that includes all the band's trademark features. The audience will be carried away by the extremely catchy melodies and upbeat lyrics. The chorus sounds almost like a mantra encouraging the listener to look on the bright side of life and to glow up. "Chase The Light" will be one of the future staples in the band's live set list, with a chorus that will get stuck in your brain for hours.
Led by sensational frontwoman Chiara Tricarico (currently one of Avantasia's live vocalists and special guest on Manowar's Highlights From The Revenge Of Odysseus EP (2022 ), Moonlight Haze has joined forces with extraordinary producer Sascha Paeth for its upcoming album.
Beyond is a perfect mixture of heavy, melodic and super catchy songs recorded in an old-fashioned way with little to no edits - Moonlight Haze went "organic" this time, with a little help from Sascha Paeth, who was able to make some of the band's classic features emerge and shine even more.
The Italian unit keeps delivering its trademark killer refrains while exploring new musical territory, further experimenting throughout ten tracks highlighted by yet another stellar vocal performance courtesy of Chiara Tricarico.
Moonlight Haze's upcoming record is a journey through time, space, galactic landscapes and earthly elements - a never-ending quest for a deeper reality and the purest inner truth. Soul-searching symphonic power metal, if you please. Beyond was produced by Moonlight Haze at Bridge Produzioni Audio and Studio and Sascha Paeth at Pathway Studio and illustrated by the talented Beatrice Demori. Link
