Morten Veland: “I'm proud and honoured to welcome Margarita Monet from Edge Of Paradise as my special guest for ‘The Covid Aftermath Sessions'. The song that we have done together is entitled 'Eyes Of The Viper', it's a powerful, groovy and modern sounding kind of track. I love Margarita's performance on the song, she really made the song come alive so beautifully. I first discovered her band Edge Of Paradise during the Pandemic, and instantly noticed Margarita's unique voice. We met in Miami a year ago, right before Sirenia and Edge Of Paradise were to perform on the 70000 Tons Of Metal cruise together. I am really happy that we finally got to do this song together.
“I feel truly privileged and thankful to have Margarita on board this project, and I am really pleased to be sharing this song with you all. The song is available on all digital platforms now.”
Margarita Monet: "When I heard the instrumental version of "Eyes of the Viper", I instantly loved it and when I read the lyrics, I could see Morten's vision of it. I had such a great time recording vocals, as I could really relate to the song, the words and the epic feel of the music. It was really exciting to see it come to life and I can't wait for people to hear it! I've been a fan of Morten's work for years, and thanks to technology, I'm thankful to be able to combine efforts from across the world and be a part of this exciting collaboration!”
