Svalbard is now streaming their new single "Eternal Spirits." The song is dedicated to the late and great Slipknot drummer Joey Jordison and all the other metal legends that have gone before us. "Eternal Spirits" is available on all streaming services here.
"'Eternal Spirits' is one of the most tragic songs we have ever written, yet it is also a celebration of the legacy and musical heritage," said Svalbard's Serena Cherry. "It is a song about late metal musicians who sadly passed away too soon and the loss we feel within the metal community without their presence.
"This song is a heartfelt tribute to our metal heroes who are gone but will never be forgotten because their legacy lives on in the millions of hearts they have touched with their music. It's crushing when your heroes die, but with this song, we want to commemorate our late heroes' glorious music and the legions of bands they have inspired. That inspiration will never die.
"On a more personal level, Joey Jordison was the person who inspired me to pick up an instrument. I started learning drums when I was 12 years old because of the energy and passion he exuded from his playing. When I listened to his drumming, every hit gave me a surge of motivation. His creative spark lit a fire within me that will never be extinguished. I'd like to dedicate 'Eternal Spirits' to his memory."
