THE OLD DEAD TREE Streaming New Album Ahead Of Official Release; Audio

French dark progressive metal band, The Old Dead Tree, are streaming their new album, Second Thoughts, ahead of the official release on Friday, December 6 via Season Of Mist. Listen to the full album below.

The Old Dead Tree stands tall amidst the ruins of fleeting trends and hollow promises. Forged in the fires of pain and perseverance, their music weaves tales of agony and resilience with a dark elegance few can rival.

Their new album, Second Thoughts, dives deep into the brooding abyss of human experience. Each track captures the raw pain of existence and the bittersweet taste of fleeting joy. From the haunting introspection of "Unpredictable" to the merciless pounding of "The Trap", every note is a visceral reminder of life’s unpredictable twists.

As you journey through the melodies and lyrics, you’ll find yourself confronting your own demons, only to emerge stronger, reborn. It’s an unflinching exploration of love, loss, and the burning desire to overcome the shadows that hunt us all.
