Following the release of their latest, much-acclaimed EP Celestial in January via Reigning Phoenix Music, Australian-Finnish dark metal outfit THE ETERNAL return with new visuals. Today, the band presents an official lyric video for the haunting track “Casting Down Shadows“.

Driven by melancholic melodies, brooding atmosphere, and the band’s signature blend of doom, gothic, and melodic metal, the song unfolds as a slowburning and emotionally charged journey. The track moves between haunting passages and powerful crescendos, capturing the reflective and cinematic mood that defines Celestial.

Speaking about the song’s lyrical themes, frontman Mark Kelson explains: 

“The lyrics of ‘Casting Down Shadows’ evoke a journey through time, turmoil, and self-discovery, framed by imagery of storms, moons, and barren lands. They portray a struggle with loss, broken ties, and hidden desires, yet also a determination to face the tempest and carve a path forward despite fear. The recurring motif of ‘casting down shadows’ suggests confronting darkness while seeking truth and illumination, with the promise of renewal and return echoing throughout. Ultimately, the song captures the tension between despair and resilience, presenting an endless cycle of falling into shadow yet rising again to continue the search for meaning and fire.”

With the new lyric video, THE ETERNAL further highlight the emotional depth and introspective themes that run throughout Celestial, offering fans another way to experience one of the EP’s most evocative tracks. Watch the clip now streaming here:

Following the success of their 2024 album Skinwalker, the band’s new EP Celestial sees THE ETERNAL continue their signature fusion of melancholic atmospheres, doom-laden heaviness, and progressive depth. The progressive gothic metal collective once again delivers an emotive and cinematic journey through sound and spirit, unafraid to embrace both beauty and bleakness while charting new creative horizons.

With Mark Kelson (vocals/guitars) and Richie Poate (guitars) in Melbourne, joined by Niclas Etelävuori (bass, ex-Amorphis/Flat Earth) and Jan Rechberger (drums, Amorphis) in Helsinki, THE ETERNAL have solidified themselves as a truly international collaboration. Their music resonates with fans of acts such as KATATONIA, SWALLOW THE SUN, and ANATHEMA – dark yet luminous, heavy yet emotionally transcendent!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Eternal Dialtone Unleash Hypnotic Self-Titled Debut – A Cosmic Psych Stoner Rock Journey
Release Date: March 27, 2026
The underground just got a little louder. Psych stoner rock trio Eternal Dialtone have officially dropped their self-titled debut, a mind-bending three-track release that stretches heavy rock into cosmic territory while keeping one boot firmly planted in gritty, blues-soaked doom.
Formed in 2024 by current and former members of Dust Moth, Giza, X Suns, Witchrat, The Bering Sea, and Maxx Shredroom, Eternal Dialtone marks a bold sonic shift from the musicians’ previous projects. The band leans into hypnotic repetition, free-flowing improvisation, and amplifier worship, crafting a sound that nods to the spirit of underground legends while carving out its own strange orbit.
Fans of heavy psychedelic explorers like Earthless , the genre-bending experimentation of King Gizzard , the desert groove of Fu Manchu , and the raw edge of Fugazi will find plenty to sink their teeth into here.
The self-titled release was tracked in a former Catholic church built in the early 1900s, a setting that lends an eerie sense of space and atmosphere to the recordings. The band’s first offering is anchored by a sprawling 13-minute journey driven by swirling riffs, hypnotic rhythms, and evolving sonic landscapes that feel as much like a ritual as a rock song.
Production on the record pulls together some serious Pacific Northwest studio pedigree. The album was engineered by Nicholas Wilbur at The Unknown in Anacortes, mixed by Matt Bayles at The Red Room in Seattle, and mastered by Ed Brooks at Resonant Mastering. The striking cover artwork was created by Steven Yoyada.
Early reactions have already praised the band’s unique approach to heavy music. As Outlaw of the Sun put it, “Eternal Dialtone demonstrates a great style of blues-based cosmic doom into their music.”
With their debut now unleashed into the world, the band has a simple message for promoters and fans alike.
“Book us!” says the band.
Eternal Dialtone is:
Rich – Guitar
Steve – Bass
Burke – Drums
The self-titled record is now available on Bandcamp and YouTube.
