Continuing the thematic journey established in the first single 'Deathlike Silence,' 'When The Fire Dies' serves as a poignant exploration of the darker realms within Finnish-Australian metal quartet THE ETERNAL's sonic landscape. Graced by the stellar performances of Dutch cellist Elianne Anemaat (CELESTIAL SEASON) and Russian vocalist Emily Saaen, a long-time collaborator of the group, this third single delves deeper into the doom aspects of their sound, crafting a slow-burning and emotionally charged narrative. The poetic storytelling of the track is accompanied by a band video of haunting beauty, scripting the transformation and renewal amidst the ashes of fading flames.

Drummer Jan Rechberger (AMORPHIS) notes, "Imbued with an ethereal quality, Mark's vocals serve as a beacon of hope amidst the dense and atmospheric soundscape. His haunting delivery adds layers of complexity, evoking a sense of vulnerability and introspection.”

"Lyrically, 'When The Fire Dies' confronts the profound emotions of loss and confusion that accompany the gradual drift between two individuals. The song serves as a cathartic expression of grief, delving into the raw and tumultuous journey of acceptance and letting go," adds mastermind Mark Kelson.

"Skinwalker," promises a continuation of their rich musical legacy and yet is set to be a defining moment creatively for the band. The album features several notable guest appearances including Tomi Joutsen (AMORPHIS), Santeri Kallio (AMORPHIS), Sami Yli-Sirniö (KREATOR) and award-winning Tuvian throat singer Albert Kuvezin (YAT-KHA) to name a few.
