Symphony of Destiny - "Exile of Horus"

What's New:

SYMPHONY OF DESTINY JUST DROPPED “EXILE OF HORUS” AND, UH, IT HITS WAY HARDER THAN EXPECTED

Watch the Video

Richmond’s own Symphony of Destiny just fired off their debut single Exile of Horus and… honestly? I wasn’t expecting that.

Imagine someone smashing Nightwish, Epica and a bit of industrial grime into the same blender, then yelling “whatever, more drama!” while it explodes. That’s the vibe. A full mythological punch in the teeth, riffs swinging like a warhammer and orchestration so massive you could swear an entire pyramid just woke up. Anne Dueweke goes full operatic mode here, like, “might actually crack a window if she pushes too hard” level, while Wesley Eldridge throws down these sharp, almost theatrical guitar lines that shouldn’t work together… but somehow do.

 

Tom Wright’s keys drift between ghostly and majestic (sometimes in the same bar, which is wild), and Patrick’s drumming jumps from proggy finesse to straight-up industrial stomp. It’s messy in the good way. The way that feels alive. They’ve been stirring things up in Central Virginia since March, The Canal Club, Fallout and they headlined Riffhouse Pub on November 29 for the release show. People said the walls shook. I kinda believe it.

If you’ve been waiting for a symphonic metal track with big drama but not the usual cheesy nonsense (you know exactly what I mean…), this is prob’ly the one. Exile of Horus isn’t just a debut: it’s basically them saying, “Yeah, we’re here. Deal with it or don’t.” Do yourself a favor: hit play, crank it stupid loud, and let the mythology chew on you a bit.
