Saor: new album 'Amidst the Ruins' out in February 2025

As the mists of time part like whispers through the Highlands, Saor rises once more to weave a tapestry of history and modernity with their powerful new single, 'Amidst the Ruins'. This first release offers a haunting glimpse into their highly anticipated upcoming sixth eponymous album, a majestic symphony blending black metal intensity and Celtic folk melodies.

Inspired by a hillwalking journey through the desolate remnants of an older world, 'Amidst the Ruins' captures the stark contrast between the echoes of a once-great heritage and the distractions of our modern lives. This anthem draws listeners into a reverent reflection of Scotland's sacred past, where the very ground holds stories of strength and identity now overshadowed by fleeting, shallow pursuits.

Guided by the spirit of Caledonia, Saor's latest opus majestically intertwines melancholy with grandeur, bridging the past and present through their evocative soundscapes. From the sorrowful betrayal chronicled in 'Glen of Sorrow' to the forested whispers accompanying 'The Sylvan Embrace', each note serves as a portal to Scotland's rich heritage, embodying tales of strength, sorrow, and renewal.

1. Amidst the Ruins
