Re:fireAldious
A track released in September 2020.
It’s included on the re-recorded album Evoke II 2010–2020.
While it’s a re-recording featuring the new vocalist R!N, care was taken not to lose the essence of the original song.
Marked by powerful guitar riffs and dynamic drum beats, it’s structured to let you fully enjoy Aldious’s power metal sound.
With a theme of “rebirth and self-discovery,” it carries a message that gives you the courage to face adversity.
It’s the perfect song for those moments when you want to overcome difficulties and move forward.
