AMARANTHE have released a cover version of "Fading Like A Flower" from Swedish pop rock legends ROXETTE. Re-visioning a classic song in their own forward-thinking synth-driven, metallic melody, AMARANTHE demonstrates their ability to inject new life into a classic song.

The band comments: "Being born and raised in Sweden meant that you are subjected to an absolute onslaught of ultra-catchy music, starting with ABBA all the way up to the present day, with some of the world's greatest songwriters and producers hailing from here. One of the most successful acts to ever come out of Sweden is ROXETTE, and if you were young in the 80's/90's, their music was EVERYWHERE. To do a tribute to 1991's "Fading Like A Flower" is something we half-jokingly talked about during a few years, and when the opportunity arose during The Catalyst recordings we jumped at it. ROXETTE's melodies and arrangements fit AMARANTHE like a hand-tailored glove, and we're now really excited to share this cover with you all!"

Stream "Fading Like A Flower" (ROXETTE Cover) BELOW.

Formed in 2008, AMARANTHE walked their own unique path from the start. With a sound that combined the sharpest, cutting edges of melodic metal, electronic rock, and razor-sharp pop, their impact was immediate and undeniable. Kicking off with their self-titled debut in 2011, the Swedes blazed a trail through the European metal scene and beyond, swiftly establishing themselves as a dazzling one-off, not least due to the unprecedented triple vocal attack that paired clean tones with exquisite melodic sensibilities and feral growls. Over the next few years, the sextet steadily grew in stature, releasing a series of praised studio records that jabbed persistently at the boundaries of modern metal.
