FROM UNREQVITED:
Hi friends,
The debut single from 'Beautiful Ghosts' has been out for a few weeks now, I hope you're all enjoying it. If you'd like to pre-order the record, you can do so at the link below. Single #2 will be coming very soon
Pop music basically has one universal topic: love, which is probably the
very reason why metal bands generally shy away from that subject like
the plague. With his sixth UNREQVITED album, "Beautiful Ghosts" driving
force and sole member 鬼 has set out to fearlessly explore this for
headbangers rather "scary" emotion. According to the
multi-instrumentalist there are strong themes of love, passion, and
devotion on this record.
As a result of journeying into his mind and collecting a wide range of emotions, 鬼 has included many lighter and more uplifting passages than previously on "Beautiful Ghosts", although dark twists are balancing the score. New elements include a significant use of clean vocals throughout the album and there are even playfully progressive rhythms as in the opening track 'All Is Lost'. The core elements that have shaped UNREQVITED in the past remain active as well. The massive anthemic refrains from "Mosaic I: L'amour Et L'ardeur" (2018) are equally present as the simple melancholic melodies from the 2016 debut album "Disquiet" and the orchestral grandeur of "Empathica" (2020).
Ever since 鬼 conceived UNREQVITED as a special musical vehicle for his multi-faceted creative output and brought it to light in 2016, his project has been a constantly shape-shifting and stylistically wide roaming creature. With "Beautiful Ghosts", the Canadian is at the same time gathering the strands of his previous works and taking an innovative step forward that makes it even harder to slap just one label onto his sound. "Beautiful Ghosts" applies a rich palette of musical colours, hues, and shades that are passionately blended together by the theme of "love".
