Wormholedeath is proud to announce the release of the lyric video for “Free”, a powerful and heartfelt track from YLISIA’s critically acclaimed album Underneath. The video, featuring visually captivating footage from Jarno Cordia’s Showreel, perfectly complements the raw emotion of the song. “Free” was written by vocalist Liesbeth Cordia following the loss of her brother, adding a deeply personal layer to the symphonic metal masterpiece.

In Liesbeth’s words: “A heartfelt tribute to a loved one lost too soon. This song confronts the overwhelming pain of grief and the struggle to find peace. It’s tough as I wrote it for my brother, who was only 44 when he died in a base-jumping accident. It’s a cathartic expression of loss and the feeling of never-ending emptiness. At the same time, it depicts that he was always a free spirit who can now, in death, be one with “source” and in a sense, “fly free, being one with the sky.”

On April 26, Ylisia will storm the stage at Paardcafé, The Hague, for a free-entry performance brimming with emotional intensity. The setlist will feature “Free,” timed to honor the birthday of Jarno Cordia (April 25), whose artistic legacy inspired the video’s visuals. Symphonic metal band Abstracted Mind  founded by the Argentine duo Juli Hope and Yamil Ladner, and featuring Ylisia’s very own drummer Eva Levina will open the night—experience their sound: https://youtu.be/8A3Y-Yi4E74

Since their formation in 2021, Ylisia has been capturing hearts and minds with their symphonic metal fusion, powerful vocals, and infectious melodies. Drawing inspiration from bands like The Gathering, Evanescence, Within Temptation, and Kate Bush, they’ve quickly become a live performance force to be reckoned with, gracing renowned stages at festivals such as FemME, Bevrijdingfestival Wageningen, and Nieuwveen Live.

Their debut album Underneath is not just another symphonic metal album—it’s an emotionally rich and personal journey, crafted over two decades by keyboardist George van Olffen. From heavy rock anthems to atmospheric ballads, tracks like “September,” “Pain,” and “Underneath” show off the band’s diverse sound. But it’s “Free,” written in the wake of deep personal loss, that truly stands out, delivering a powerful message of hope, grief, and resilience.

Produced with care by Daan Janzing and featuring stunning artwork by Gogo Malone, Underneath is a must-listen for anyone who appreciates raw emotion and musical depth.
