Italian symphonic/gothic metal band Souls Of Diotima returns with a surprise single to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their artistic career. The song is a cover of the well-known international artist, Phil Collins, "Another Day In Paradise".
The band comments: "This single is a kind of bonus and will not be included on our next album, so it is a stand-alone release just to celebrate our 20th anniversary and surprise our fans when we are working on our fifth album. This is actually the first time we are releasing a cover song, in our twenty-year career it had never happened, so in that sense, too, we are very curious to see the reaction of our audience. But why did we choose this track? First of all, it is a tribute to that great songwriter, composer and musician Phil Collins, and then it is a tribute to the 'last ones'. In our career, in fact, we have always paid much attention, not only with our music but with concrete actions, precisely to the 'last ones', to those who live on the margins of society, to those who cannot. In our opinion, in fact, those who make art but in general those who have a 'voice' that can be heard have a duty to call consciences to those people who are often 'invisible'."
The single is accompanied by a stunning official video directed by Daniele Diana. What do you think? Check it out. Link

"Goth people want to have fun sometimes too. I guess if your listening time is 99% dark, sad songs or evil black metal songs, sometimes you want 1% joy, and here I come." - Franck Hueso
"It's a dark album. According to me, it's the darkest yet in our discography. It's also very suggestive, very introverted, less direct, and might be less friendly..." - Daniel Moilanen
