Esprit D’Air returned back on the stage of London’s O2 Academy Islington on the 20th of February, the first show with an audience in a couple of years, to celebrate the release of the melodic metal and electronicore solo project’s second album OCEANS.

A day after that show, Esprit D’Air shared a message on social media with the message “We’re not done yet, UK!”. The social media message consisted of the announcement of a tour through the United Kingdom in the coming summer, including a headlining show at Amplified Festival in London. This tour through the United Kingdom will continue celebrating the release of the second album by Esprit D’Air. The tour will feature special guests, who will be announced in the near future.

The release of OCEANS was made possible through a successful crowdfunding campaign where fans of the melodic metal and electronicore solo project was given a chance to support the independent music project. On the release day of this second album, Esprit D’Air shared an enhanced edition music video of the popular song Leviathan, whose cyberpunk-inspired music video was directed by award-winning director Andy Mihov and also made possible through a crowdfunding project. After the release of the original music video in 2020, there was time taken to add some extra things to take the video to a new level.

Be sure to read our interview if you want to know more about Kai of Esprit D’Air and his way of and his way of working on the development of new music.

The photo portrays the four members of visual kei metal band DEVILOOF, all dressed in black attire with red and yellow/gold-coloured accents. The outfits are a combination of (fake) leather and fur, chains, belts Japanese traditional clothing.
