Soprano Siren Talia Hoit Unveils New Album Oceans
The ocean is as contradictory as it is mysterious. On one hand, it is deep, dangerous, and pitch-black, with parts that remain unexplored, while folklore and mythology fill it with sea monsters like kraken, giant squids, and deadly alluring creatures like sirens or mermaids. On the other hand, it can be calm and quiet, offering silent caves and sheltering shores, populated by beautiful beings and fascinating flora. Metaphorically, the ocean reflects the multiplicity of human emotions and experiences. It is this thematic richness that symphonic metal mermaid and talented singer-songwriter Talia Hoit has drawn inspiration from for her upcoming album Oceans, set for release on November 21, 2024.
In ten captivating songs, Talia Hoit explores masterful highs and depths, supported by a stellar lineup featuring Mat Plekhanov on guitar (DRAGONY), Roland Navratil on drums (ATROCITY, LEAVES' EYES, EDENBRIDGE), and Max Stoner on bass and rhythm guitar. All tracks are produced by Frank Pitters (VISIONS OF ATLANTIS, DEEP SUN, EDENBRIDGE) and Talia Hoit herself, with each song intricately connected to the nautical theme. Oceans offers a symphonic dive into the shifting tides of human emotions, addressing themes like the slow-moving love that crashes upon rocky shores, the vast emptiness of loss, steadfastness amidst turbulent waves, and the triumph of the human spirit. Talia Hoit invites listeners on a journey beneath the waves and into the oceans within. Her sound is dark, introspective, and metaphorical, guaranteed to evoke a range of emotions and prompt reflections on love and loss.
Talia explains, "With this album, I want people to feel the music and the themes of the lyrics deeply, like the depths of the ocean. I want it to be a journey for the listener, one that is both enjoyable and emotionally moving." Whether you’re up for a deep dive or simply seeking a nautical musical adventure, Talia's music has an undeniable impact. So if you’re a metal enthusiast navigating the vast sea of musical options, you’ll definitely enjoy getting caught in her symphonic metal net!
