Today, Denmark’s highflyers FOREVER STILL unleash their sophomore full-length release »Breathe In Colours«, diving the listener right into a dark concept of a dystopian cyberpunk future, mixing modern metal with melodic hard rock and strong female vocals.
This time, the band has evolved their songwriting skills even further, without producing a carbon copy of its predecessor »Tied Down«, released in 2016. Instead, the new album drifts both into more epic moments like on the captivating opener ‘Rew1nd‘ or ‘Embrace The Tide’, while frontwoman Maja Shining also delivers her heaviest screams to date on the groovy ‘Survive’ or their emotional declaration of war, ‘Fight!’.
As a final taster, FOREVER STILL reveal the special bonus track – the Lou Reed cover ‘Perfect Day’. Watch the atmospheric new music video, here:

When Philip K. Dick wrote what would later become Blade Runner, no one would have believed that the dystopian cyberpunk future he imagined 2019 to be, would be so similar to the world we live in today…
This realisation is what sparked the idea for the new album from FOREVER STILL – »Breathe In Colours«. For the first time, the songwriting duo of singer Maja and multi-instrumentalist Mikkel Haastrup have decided to make the album a more collaborative effort and therefore brought their long time live drummer, Rune Frisch, into the studio with them to record the drums – a big step for the two young musicians who handled everything on their own on the previous record, from music videos to band photos, the album production and even concert booking. After sweat, blood and tears and the surprising use of a theremin, the result of FOREVER STILL’s efforts to break through the numbing grey, is a surprisingly diversified and mature album that breathes fresh air – and colours – into the bland rock scene.
