Metal Shock Finland (World Assault )

The brand-new lyric video by WALLS OF BABYLON, titled “Eternal Hunt”, is officially online on YouTube! The track is taken from the band’s highly anticipated upcoming album “Aeons Apart”, out January 9th, 2026 via Wanikiya Record/Promotion.

Set in a futuristic sci-fi world, Eternal Hunt tells the story of a bounty hunter on his final mission: to eliminate his nemesis — a rogue android. But before being destroyed, the android forces him to face a cruel truth:

Who is truly the hunter?
The one who chases the prey… or the prey itself, which traps him within his own obsession?

A dark, powerful, and introspective track where the band masterfully blends progressive metal, cinematic atmospheres, and narrative depth, foreshadowing the conceptual intensity of the new record.

After shaking the metal scene with their devastating 2020 release “Fallen” (Wanikiya Record), Walls of Babylon are back with Aeons Apart — an ambitious, modern, and emotional work that pushes the band toward new sonic and conceptual horizons.

An album that promises epicness, darkness, and introspection, while keeping alive the power-prog legacy that made Walls of Babylon one of the most respected acts in the Italian metal scene.

The album’s mastering was entrusted to Simone Mularoni at the prestigious Domination Studio, ensuring top-tier sound quality and power.

Wanikiya Record states:

“With Eternal Hunt, Walls of Babylon transport us into a dystopian universe where metal power meets philosophical reflection. A powerful preview of what’s to come with Aeons Apart.”
