A Return to Form, A Step into DnB: Inside Seven Lions’ New Album
Seven Lions has finally given fans the album they have been dreaming of. His second full-length project, Asleep in the Garden of Infernal Stars, is a breathtaking journey that feels like a homecoming to the sound that first defined his legacy.
The excitement for this album became a frenzy with the release of its first single, “By the Light of the Moon.” For anyone who grew up on his early anthems, the track was an immediate flashback to classic Seven Lions sound, that perfect blend of cinematic melody and ethereal bass. That initial glimpse was a promise, and the full album delivers true talent. Across 11 tracks, he weaves through melodic dubstep with fresh, forward-thinking explorations into drum and bass and trance, featuring iconic vocal collaborations with artists like Kerli and HALIENE.
The track list itself tells the story of this balance. Songs like “Cold as Snow” and “Thrice Woven” offer that direct connection to the melodic roots fans cherish, while tracks such as “So Far Away” and “From Beyond” dive headfirst into the exhilarating, high-energy world of drum and bass.
From the stunning album artwork to the genre-exploration throughout the release, the entire experience is ethereal and immersive. This is an album built to get lost in. It informs listeners that an artist can honor the past that made fans fall in love with them while still boldly charting a path into new, uncharted sonic territory. Asleep in the Garden of Infernal Stars is why Seven Lions remains a pillar of melodic electronic music.
