French symphonic metal band Hartlight have released the single “The Golden Egg” and launched a crowdfunding campaign for their next album.
“Dear Alchemists,” the band write. “IOSIS is more than an album. It's a fantasy universe built around a metal opera and an original novel, and we've got big plans for it.”
With IOSIS, Hartlight present their most ambitious project to date: a concept album created as a metal opera. The campaign opened on 1 November.
