Heavy Metal band Fallen Shadows releases new single “Torture and Faith”

The band Fallen Shadows has just released their fifth single, “Torture and Faith,” recorded at Melopeia Records and produced by Leandro Carimbó. The new work brings all the weight, intensity, and melody that characterize the sound of the Power Trio. With lyrics by Eduardo Meira (bass) and composition by Carlos Pranches (guitar), “Torture and Faith” delves into a real case in which a person's disappearance was linked to black magic rituals and occultism. The track reflects on the boundaries between torture, politics, and religion, creating a dense and impactful atmosphere.

"Our fifth single marks a new phase for the band. It's our first collaboration with Leandro Carimbó, and we're very happy with the result. After a brief hiatus, returning means a lot to us. It's what we do, you know? Composing and recording together is always a very enjoyable challenge. It reaffirms us as a unit," comments vocalist Rodrigo Cafundó.

"When I came into contact with the concept of the single, I was immediately inspired. The composition was fluid and spontaneous. The initial riff dictated the direction. The feeling of the music matched the lyrical approach. I entered a 'mental zone,' a focus that allowed me to finish the track. The musicians' commitment and performance were essential for the necessary impact of the sound," says guitarist and composer Carlos Pranches.

In addition to developing the lyrics, bassist Eduardo Meira once again signs the creative concept for the single's artwork and reinforces the band's good moment: "We are in a unique moment as musicians and brothers. I am particularly happy to have developed, for the first time, the concept of art and lyrics for one of our songs. I believe we managed to convey all the drama of the lyrics, also in the single's cover. The portrait of pain and suffering of a tortured person, highlighting all their resilience, trying not to abandon their faith," concludes bassist and lyricist Eduardo Meira.

Torture and Faith is available on all streaming platforms and features an exclusive music video on YouTube, edited by Allure Films.
