-


February 22, 2025 – Dark folk atmospheric doom metal act ALIZAM has just unleashed their third single, "Gilded Cage," from the highly anticipated upcoming album Exilium Vitae. The single serves as a mesmerizing yet unsettling exploration of the illusory nature of freedom, where beauty veils the despair lurking beneath.

A Poetic Exploration of Entrapment

“Gilded Cage” delves into the existential turmoil of a soul imprisoned within a deceptive paradise—a world adorned with gleaming facades yet hollow at its core. Through evocative lyrics, the song questions whether the fleeting pleasures and alluring promises of life can truly mask the decay within. It grapples with the contradiction between the ideals of creation and the painful realities of existence.

Musically, "Gilded Cage" weaves sorrowful melodies with intense, layered instrumentation, reflecting the emotional struggle of breaking free from the shackles of conformity. The track dares listeners to confront the raw, unfiltered truth lurking beneath life’s gilded illusions.
