Eidola have shared an official video for their new song “Damballah.” That track will appear on their new album, “The Will To Power,” which will be out on November 20. Vocalist/guitarist Andrew Wells said the following about the single:
“’Damballah’ is about transformation through destruction. The idea that sometimes the only way forward is to shed the identity that brought you this far. The serpent itself is an ancient symbol of that cycle of creation and death, wisdom and temptation, shedding and becoming. There’s an acceptance in the song that nothing is meant to remain the same forever, and that evolution sometimes requires you to willingly let go of habits you’ve spent your entire life building.”
He also added the following about the album:
“We were capturing these lightning-in-a-bottle moments. Working in-person was just so much fun. As a father now, my excitement and gratitude for what we do together had really increased. I was able to access more emotion and vulnerability than ever before. I tapped into those spaces to philosophize from my own perspective. As a result, ‘The Will To Power’ became the best representation of what our band is.”
