Exit Eden – Breaking the Mold

Debuting in 2017 with an album of pop-turned-metal covers in Rhapsodies in Black, and composed of all-star vocalists from the symphonic and modern metal scenes, Exit Eden hit the ground running. But when you have 4 very busy vocalists in their own right, it might take a bit of time for a second round to come through. But low and behold, here we sit eight years later with Femmes Fatales, their second full-length. Now composed of three members, and…
