Aria Blake: “As Night Descends” Digtial and CD 26th September 2025 Reads Records. French Opera / Symphonic / Heavy Metal band.
A first four tracks Ep with amazing cover artwork and professional sound. Very impressive for a debut! The cover artwork reminds me of Lindsay Schoolcraft‘s albums. Started in 2024, the band released single after single and gave us this excellent four tracks EP.
French musicians with a canadian singer who lives in Germany. A strong presence with powerful feel, the music is well buried into the genre. Listening to it, Aria Blake sounds like an old band with experience and skills.
A brilliant production, very well written songs, it’s a new discovery. They will conquer the world in a minute and you will hear about them for long. A promising future is awaiting to arise and explode.
Check out the first video:
influences: Within Temptation, Nightwish, Epica, and many more.
Keyboards samples, choral voices, ambient sounds lifting up the whole. A surprising moment, your brain imagine already the band on big stages with an orchestra surrounding everybody.
Already serious guests powering up the songs, giving Aria Blake a big lift in the music business. Roland Graspow, Ambre_vourvahis , two brilliant musicians.
A masterpiece in four songs already, you can imagine what they can do with a full length album! You can’t let it go, the melodies takes your soul away.
It shreds your heart with love, 100/100.
