EYE OF MELIAN - Dawn of Avatars (feat. Patty Gurdy & Troy Donockley) | Napalm Records

New Album, Forest of Forgetting, Drops February 20, 2026 Pre-Order: http://lnk.to/EyeOfMelian-ForestofForgetting Come wander a starless void… Find solace in a silent, snow-covered forest… Sail past the edge of the known map. This is Eye of Melian. Music shaped by myth, memory, and magic — deeply inspired by fantasy film scores, Tolkien-esque lore, and the ethereal worlds that shimmer at the edge of dreams. Symphonic. Poetic. Otherworldly. A journey of sound that unfolds like a story in the mind.
