Heavy metal band Veil of the Serpent has unveiled their latest single, the powerful ballad 'We Are the Stars,' marking a melodic turn in their sound. The track, drawn from their upcoming album Born to Burn, explores themes of life's end with acceptance and hope. It is available now on major streaming platforms.
Veil of the Serpent, a trio formed in 2021, closes out the year with 'We Are the Stars,' described as one of their most epic compositions. The band, consisting of vocalist JD, guitarist Gene, and drummer Felix—who is Gene's son—began as a father-son project driven by a shared passion for heavy metal. Their addition of JD solidified the lineup, creating a sound that blends brutality with haunting elements.
This new single serves as a metal ballad that delves into the end of life, emphasizing acceptance rather than fear, and the enduring belief in something beyond. It balances emotional depth with the group's characteristic heaviness, featuring atmospheric tension, soaring melodies, and robust guitar work, resulting in a cinematic experience.
'We Are the Stars' is part of the broader narrative in the forthcoming album Born to Burn, a space saga addressing rebellion, transformation, and survival in a crumbling universe. The song acts as a pivotal moment of reflection amid conflict, isolation, and destruction, conveying messages of guidance and redemption.
The album Born to Burn is set for release on CD and digital formats worldwide on March 20. Fans can stream and download the single immediately via major platforms, with the band maintaining an active presence on social media and their official website for updates.
