Cinematic folk-metal visionaries Equilibrium return with their brand-new single Bloodwood, a powerful track accompanied by a stunning video. The song tells the story of a tree transforming into human form, exploring themes of lineage, loss, and the sacred violence of becoming flesh and blood.
Speaking on the release, the band commented:
“Over the past years, we’ve worked extensively on the next chapter of Equilibrium. ‘Bloodwood’ marks the beginning of this journey , a journey back to our roots and at the same time a brave step forward into our future. Equilibrium has always been about storytelling, and this time our goal was to make everything more coherent , visually, musically, and contextually. More organic, cinematic and real.”
Blending handcrafted visuals, organic instrumentation, and raw emotion, Bloodwood signals a new era for Equilibrium, one where their music and videos are more deeply connected than ever.
