"The Road" was a very fun and special song that was originally the exclusive bonus track for the Japanese release of our second album, "Emerald Seas". It’s hard to believe it, but now for the album’s 5-year anniversary, we wanted to give a facelift and update to this track and release it for the rest of the world to enjoy.
Aside from a couple of orchestral and keyboard parts, this version of "The Road" is entirely re-recorded, remixed, and remastered, including Dylan Gowan’s fantastic drumming for the first time on a recorded Seven Spires song. It’s a fitting one, because Dylan basically jumped in the deep end with our recent show schedule, and as you can see from the accompanying video we put together for the release, it’s been nothing but a blast having him on tour with us!
It’s a fast-paced, technically-challenging, super uplifting anthem celebrating the shared joy of live metal shows, and we hope you love our new version of "The Road" as much as we loved making it for you.
