Ruins of Elysium
Epic symphonic metal project founded by tenor Drake Chrisdensen, operating across Brazil and Italy with a focus on classical male operatic vocals over orchestral metal arrangements. The band released the EP Daphne in 2016, followed by the full-length Seeds of Chaos and Serenity in April 2017, the latter anchored by a 40-minute title symphony divided into five arcs inspired by the Sailor Moon manga. A second full-length, Amphitrite: Ancient Sanctuary in the Sea, arrived in 2021 and incorporated folk elements from Scandinavian, Middle Eastern, Japanese, Brazilian, and African musical traditions across twelve tracks.
