Darklore reveal new single ‘Servants of Sauron’

Blackened Death Metal, Symphonic Death Metal, Symphonic Metal

Fantasy metal storytellers Darklore have revealed their new single “Servants of Sauron” today, accompanied by an official lyric video. The track is the second release from the band’s upcoming studio album, “The Great Elven War”.

‘Servants of Sauron’ is out today on all streaming platforms, with the lyric video available now.

Drawing deeply on the band’s passion for The Lord of the Rings, ‘Servants of Sauron’ is an epic and cinematic journey told from the perspective of the Dark Lord himself. Through commanding narration and soaring metal arrangements, Sauron speaks of his most loyal and feared servants, the Nazgûl, as the hunt for the One Ring of Power begins a new. With imagery steeped in fire, shadow, and conquest, the song captures the dark majesty and relentless force of Middle-earth’s greatest evil.

“The Great Elven War” sees Darklore at their most ambitious, blending fantasy-driven storytelling with powerful metal songwriting to create a vivid and immersive listening experience. ‘Servants of Sauron’ stands as a defining chapter of the album, casting the shadow of Mordor across the band’s expanding sonic world.

Album Title: The Great Elven War

Track list:
01 – The Hunting Grounds
02 – Descendants of the Pale Moon (Video)
03 – The Beast of Beauclair

For updates, follow Darklore across all platforms and prepare for the conflict that will shape the fate of the Elven realms.

 Decked-out in black leather and face paint, you’d be forgiven for thinking that Darklore had just walked off the set of a fantasy film. Their theatrical set and songs of dark fantasy and epic battles takes you on an adventure through many a mystical and magical place. Hailing from Brisbane, Australia, this unique metal outfit brings forth blackened hymns from realms both familiar and surprising. Their offerings deliver unique tales, from sword-clashing encounters to demon slaying battles, presented with an energetic delivery and theatrical stage presence that will leave you entranced. The dark fantasy lyrical content of Darklore’s work recalls stories from popular universes such as The Lord of The Rings, Game of Thrones, and also draws on their unique realms of darkness. And they play on their success in rallying melodic and symphonic overtones, paired with elements of black and death metal.

Darklore has previously released their first studio album, The Evil of Man. 2025 will herald the release of their latest musical offering, The Great Elven War. The call is out to Darkloreans far-and-wide as our lovable warriors prepare to do battle once more!
