CYHRA/RED WOLF guitarist EUGE VALOVIRTA has released a touching song and video ‘A Song For An Absent Friend’, watch below.
Euge states:
“It’s for Alexi, but also for all the late friends. And to my Grandpa, who passed away some time ago.
The song actually got its start after my Grandpa’s passing and I came back to it now ‘cos I felt that I had to “play my feelings out” somehow. So I finished the song and then filmed myself playing the lead guitar and just played from my heart.
I can’t really explain it but playing guitar always makes me feel better no matter what is going on.
Alexi & I weren’t the closest friends but every time we met we always had such a great time. Whether it was playing on each of other’s albums, doing guitar clinics or playing occasional live shows or just hanging out. He was one the most caring, humble and nicest guys I’ve ever met and it feels so unfair that he isn’t with us anymore.”
In November, modern melodic metallers CYHRA released their critically acclaimed new album »No Halos In Hell«! Loaded with melodic vocal hooks and heavy yet dynamic guitars that stay nailed to the brain for days, this sophomore full-length release proves Jake E (ex-AMARANTHE), Jesper Strömblad (ex-IN FLAMES), Euge Valovirta (ex-SHINING) and Alex Landenburg (KAMELOT) are a band ready to take the world by storm!
Today, CYHRA present the brand new official video for their song ‘Dreams Gone Wrong’ that you can watch here:
CYHRA vocalist Jake E comments: “Sometimes it’s interesting to see what happens when you let the unexpected happen. ‘Dreams Gone Wrong’ was the last song we wrote for our new album “No Halos In Hell”.
We actually wrote it in the studio at the very last moment – when the album was more or less already done. Even though I was really pleased with what we had already recorded, I felt like we needed one more song to really make the album as strong as we all knew it could be.
I ran into studio B and came up with the basic song structure. However… Alex was on his way to jump on a European tour with Kamelot, and had just started packing up his drums. So Euge and Jesper quickly teamed up and we got Alex back on the drum kit. Thankfully Jacob coordinated everything!
A couple of hours later… and the song was written recorded and produced!
The song sticks out lyric-wise as we were short on time, so I was inspired by a documentary I had just seen some months earlier about sleep paralysis. Sometimes the best songs are the easiest to write.
Once again we had the opportunity to work with one of my best friends and the one and only Mr Patric Ullaeus for the video!
