Genus Ordinis Dei release new single ‘East Of Eden’

Italian symphonic death metal band Genus Ordinis Dei have released their brand-new single ‘East of Eden‘, now available on all major streaming platforms. The song serves as the opening act of the band’s upcoming concept album and opera, ‘The Land East of Eden‘, which is set for release on January 16, 2026.

East of Eden marks the beginning of a new chapter in the band’s evolving narrative universe. The track portrays the first steps of Cain after his exile; desperate, alone, and cast away from both God and Blood, forced to walk into a land of shadows and forgotten spirits.

The single introduces the dramatic themes and cinematic soundscapes that define The Land East of Eden, which also features the legendary Roy Khan (Conception, ex-Kamelot).

Tommy, founder, producer and guitarist of the band, says about the new single:

“Musically, East of Eden lays the emotional and sonic foundation of the album. Primal riffs, ritualistic drums, and a chorus melody that feels ancient and unforgettable. This track walks the line between epic storytelling and raw aggression, blending orchestral grandeur with the darker pulse of modern metal. It’s the gate opening, the fall echoing, the beginning of the exile.”

Nico, drummer, adds:

“[…] there’s groove, violence, and moments of eerie tension… the heartbeat of a man who realizes exile is forever. This track marks the beginning of the fall, and I wanted the drums to make you feel every heavy step he takes into the unknown.”

Pre-orders for The Land East of Eden are now open on Bandcamp:

With The Land East of Eden, Genus Ordinis Dei continue to expand their unmistakable blend of symphonic grandeur, extreme metal intensity and narrative depth.

The forthcoming album promises to deliver a new chapter in the band’s ambitious mythological saga, The Divine Order.
