CHTHONIC return with new single and video “Endless Aeons” – Lambgoat

Taiwanese metal band CHTHONIC have returned with new single and video „Endless Aeons,“ marking their first new music since 2023’s single „Pattonkan.“ The title is translated from the Taiwanese phrase 百萬遍 (Pah-bān-piàn), which refers to the gathering of people to chant Buddhist sutras.
Lead vocalist Freddy Lim, who was elected to Taiwanese Parliament in 2016, had this to say about the new track:
„CHTHONIC’s music is always about reincarnation and catastrophe – it’s very religious. In the past, our works told Taiwan’s ever-reincarnating catastrophes. When I discovered that actually someone close in my family is a victim of one of these catastrophes, it became personal, and started writing ‚Endless Aeons‘ and other songs. When will these catastrophes be over? If we could start our lives all over again, would it be possible for us to be without remorse? This song is a question, and the answer.“
The „Endless Aeons“ video continues the storyline from CHTHONIC’s previous music videos for „Defenders of Bú-Tik Palace,“ „Kaoru,“ „Millennia’s Faith Undone„, and „Pattonkan.“ The new characters introduced in this chapter are victims of the 228 Uprising and Massacre of 1947, who are reincarnated and ultimately arrive at a CHTHONIC concert—symbolizing an interruption in the cycle of reincarnation.
