EPK – Falamh – Aeons Effigy (2022)

“The concept for this EP is about the journey and discovery of oneself and the transformation effects that occur. Whether being steadfast or yielding, change is always inevitable and it’s how someone reacts that can determine the perspective and outcome. The lyrics reflect this by telling tales of different characters and how their reaction affects them.” – Kyle Tayler (Guitars, Vocals) – Falamh

Falamh, from North Bay, ON, Canada rose from the ashes of a previous band in 2019. Guitarist/vocalist Kyle Tayler had originally written material for that band, but after the dissolution, sought other creative outlets for them. Enlisting members from the previous band, Falamh was born and they got to work refining their melodic black/death metal.
Ultimately working collaboratively, Tayler guides the initial creation of song structures, riffs, drums patterns, and lyrics which are distilled by David Strba (guitars, backing vocals) and Kye Bell (bass). The three of them have considerable experience playing live and for them, the current focus is to present something more memorable with a stage presence that adds to the overall atmosphere of the music.
Falamh released their first EP “The Unbound Beyond: I” in 2020 and will follow it up with “Aeons Effigy” due out on March 25, 2022.
The EP as a whole explained by the band:
Melodic black/death metal with various genre influences. The concept for this EP is about the journey and discovery of oneself and the transformation effects that occur. Whether being steadfast or yielding, change is always inevitable and it’s how someone reacts that can determine the perspective and outcome. The lyrics reflect this by telling tales of different characters and how their reaction affects them.
Track by Track explained by the band:
1. Winds of Silence – Musically we tried to keep it up-tempo with lots of grooves to headbang along with. L Lyrically, it’s about perseverance and being resolute to any obstacles before you.
2. Blackened Waves – A bit more mid-tempo with some highs and lows to keep it dynamic. Lyrics, it’s about being lost in a storm at sea and having a near-death experience.
3. Benighted Weald – Starts off with some acoustic guitars to help tell the tale of someone cursed by the forest and no longer destined for this world.
4. Aethereal Forger – Comes in slow but quickly heats up, keeping the moment throughout. Lyrics, it’s about the world being covered in fire in a Ragnarok type event and no one being able to stop it.
