After a decade of captivating audiences under the name Wishmasters, the symphonic metal band Emrei's is ready to embark on a new journey while honoring their roots. With a fresh name but the same passion, Emrei's is excited to announce the release of their album “Beatrice Reborn”, a complete reimagining of their debut album Beatrice, which originally launched in 2014.
“Beatrice Reborn” is not just a remaster; it is a total transformation. The album has been completely re-recorded, with each song meticulously re-tuned, re-sung, and modernized. Despite the updated production, Emrei's has ensured that the dark, atmospheric essence of their original symphonic metal and gothic style remains intact. This album is a nod to the band's origins and a bridge to their future, proving that while their name may have changed, their musical soul remains the same.
To set the stage for the album's release, Emrei's has already unveiled three singles, each showcasing a different facet of the band's artistic range. The haunting ballad “Shadows” invites listeners into the album's introspective and melancholic world. “Suspicion”, a high-energy Irish folk-inspired track, contrasts sharply with its lively tempo and dynamic composition. Most recently, on Monday, August 19th, the band released “LAST BREATH”, accompanied by a mysterious music video that complements the song's dark and intense nature. As perhaps the most enigmatic track on the album “Beatrice Reborn”, it offers fans a glimpse into the deeper, more shadowy corners of the record.
Beatrice was always more than just an album; it was a story — a bloody, passionate tale of love and the lengths one might go to for it. Each song serves as a chapter in this gloomy narrative, exploring themes of obsession, madness, and introspective escape. In revisiting and remaking these songs, Emrei's has breathed new life into the story, allowing it to be experienced anew by both longtime fans and those who are just discovering the band's music.
With “Beatrice Reborn”, Emrei's seeks to remind fans that while the name has changed, the band's core remains unaltered. This re-release serves as both a tribute to their past and a declaration of their future, offering a refined yet familiar experience. As keyboardist and composer Josef Hübner explains: “We wanted to start this new era by revisiting our first piece, showing that the band may have a new name, but our identity and passion for music remain unchanged.”
