Swedish modern metal band LIV SIN has signed a worldwide record deal with Seek And Strike for the release of its new album, “Close Your Eyes”, due on August 8. The album’s title track is streaming now and offers a first glimpse of what fans can expect from the LP. Tackling the harrowing subject of human trafficking, the song features a guest performance from Lars Palmqvist of SCAR SYMMETRY

Watch “Close Your Eyes” below.

Fronted by Liv Jagrell (ex-Sister Sin), LIV SIN blend aggressive riff-driven metal with soaring melodies, steadily building their presence on the international metal scene.

LIV SIN states: “We chose the album’s title track, ‘Close Your Eyes,’ as the first single/video for mainly two reasons. We got the amazing vocalist, Lars Palmqvist from Scar Symmetry, to join us, and the song has a straight up melodic chorus that everyone was instantly hooked on.

“The song also has a darker edge to it, since it covers the topic of human trafficking. Liv got the idea for the lyrics after watching a documentary about people being tricked into trafficking across eastern Europe. 

“In the video, we tried to recreate the feeling of being all alone in a dark room with different strangers coming and going. Liv sings and screams out her inner frustrations reflecting on the world today with a deep longing for a better world.”

The album was mixed by the renowned Tue Madsen, known for his work with BABYMETAL and MESHUGGAH.
