Sunlight strike back with second single “Son Of Fire”

Greek melodic heavy/power metallers Sunlight are more than happy to announce the release of their new single/visualizer “Son Of Fire”, taken out from the upcoming second album “Son Of The Sun”, which is set for release on Friday 6th December, 2024 through Total Metal Records, a division of Metal Scrap Records Inc..

“Son Of Fire” is the opening track of the album and it’s sure the best way to introduce the newest effort of the band out to the world! You can watch/listen to it below.

Guitarist/founding member Makis Kaponis comments: ““Son of Fire” was one of the first tracks from the new album that we played live. It all started when Dimitris Kapoukakis (ex-drummer) came up with the idea for a verse featuring a fast and dynamic melody. He initially developed it with Dimitris Giannakopoulos (ex-singer), and from that point, the song started taking shape. During a rehearsal, we jammed a part of it and then we all started tossing around ideas for how to complete it. Concerning the lyrics, probably I could say that they are the “darkest” on the album, inspiring me to suggest a contrasting chorus with a brighter, more upbeat vibe. At the next rehearsal, I played my ideas to the band, and they were into it! Dimitris Kapoukakis added the final lyrics, and just like that, “Son of Fire” was born!”.

The visualiser video for “Son Of Fire” has been created by Irvan Dionisi of The Black Visual Studio, an Indonesian video director and motion designer, who previously worked with bands like Verikalpa, Voices In My Head & Oakheart among others.

The band previously released the single/lyric video “Forever Lost” which can be found below. The lyric video has been created by Algerian artist Theazshow, who has worked with artists like Les Projets d’Athéna, Villaintropist & Silence In Surrender among others.

The band is currently looking forward to set up a live show presentation for the new album. Stay tuned for further information.
