A "vampire story" released by the new lineup. It is a gothic romance woven from high tones that cut through silence and multiple layers of magnificent orchestration. ANCIENT MYTH is a Tokyo-based symphonic metal band centered around female vocalist and leader Michal. With a dark, gothic worldview, precisely constructed beauty, and melodic musicality, they release their long-awaited new single! The current lineup became solid with kaya (G) joining in 2024 and Raimu (B) joining in 2026. The title track "Bloody Crescent," their first nationally distributed work in about five years, is a dark, fast-paced song led by the sound of an organ echoing through a pitch-black night, beautifully, mysteriously, and dramatically depicting the abyss of a vampire. Especially noteworthy is the overwhelming vocal work delivered by leader Michal. From high tones that soar into the sky to deep and expressive singing, her freely controlled voice shines with supreme brilliance within the band's more intense sound. The coupling track also features a re-recorded version of the single "Amarantos Blooms," released in 2024 and quickly sold out. As the first official sound source with new bassist Raimu, this work shows how this live favorite has been reborn with a stronger rhythm section. It is a work full of highlights, where old and new appeal intersect.
