ELVELLON on “My Forever Endeavour”:

“With ‘My Forever Endeavour’ we are releasing a song that developed in the direction of the classic ELVELLON-style. It deals with the topic of bitter decisions and farewells that we have all had to make. The path of life also includes embracing these moments and taking them with you as part of your journey. Because even if it hurts, they are some of the most important ones. With this mixture of melancholic lyrics and encouraging melodies, it was immediately clear to us that this song should have a special place on ‘Ascending In Synergy’.”

ELVELLON about ‘Ascending in Synergy’:

“We are incredibly excited to see how our fans will receive ‘Ascending In Synergy’. A lot has happened since our debut album and the songwriting process has changed a lot. It still feels like 100% ELVELLON to us, but the dynamics have expanded. It has become more orchestral and more metal at the same time. Also, lyrically we no longer stick to a single concept, but the songs are held together by a common thread.”
