Blackbriar are known for telling stories through their songs, and the new track is no exception. “Harpy” tells the tale of a harpy creature that summons winds and storms and abducts cursed souls.

When the heart becomes the bait

Vocalist Zora shares insights into the meaning behind “Harpy”: “In this song, I summon a harpy to carry me away after I’ve died a thousand little deaths. I lure her with my carrion resin—after all, harpies are known as human vultures. If I don’t succeed, I fear I might remain stuck in the same place, slowly decaying. I must die one last time to finally be laid to rest. This song, Harpy, inspired the album’s title.” A poetic yet profound reflection on pain and the longing for redemption.

“A Thousand Little Deaths” and the upcoming tour

“Harpy” is another single from the upcoming album “A Thousand Little Deaths”, which will be released on August 22. In October and November, the band will embark on a headlining tour across Europe.

A music video for “Harpy” is expected in the coming days. Until then, the song is already available for streaming on all major platforms.
