THE BEAST

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

MOONSCAPE UNVEILS “ENTITY, CHAPTER III: A SUDDEN GLIMPSE OF CLARITY” – THE EPIC CONCLUSION TO THE PROGRESSIVE METAL SAGA

Norwegian progressive metal visionary Moonscape , led by multi-instrumentalist Håvard Lunde , returns with the highly anticipated release of Entity, Chapter III: A Sudden Glimpse of Clarity . This monumental 42-minute composition concludes the critically acclaimed “Entity” trilogy, delivering an emotionally charged narrative and the lush, symphonic arrangements Moonscape fans have come to expect.

Since its inception in 2015, Moonscape has pushed the boundaries of story-driven progressive metal, combining conceptual storytelling with intricate musicianship. In Chapter III , the saga follows the protagonist, known simply as "Man," as he battles isolation, loneliness, and his inner demon—ultimately recognizing it as the voice of his depression. Guided by the characters "Reason" and "Hope," the story crescendos toward a heartfelt resolution of struggle, self-confrontation, and personal renewal.

The album features an array of guest performers, each bringing life to the narrative:

Matthew Brown (Arkhane) as "Man"/"Demon"

David Åkesson as "Reason"

Nina Pohleven (Inflected) as "Hope"

Instrumental contributions include Cezar Popescu (Vita de Vie) , Andreas Jonsson (ex-Spiral Architect) , Leviathan (Abyss Below) on lead guitars, and Diego Palma (Lord Divine) on keyboards, weaving a rich tapestry of sound that complements the album’s emotional depth.

"Moonscape is far from a stranger of overcoming such hurdles as its previous works, and it’s in the vast expanse that’s explored throughout the 42-minute continuation of the 'Entity' saga, 'Chapter III: A Sudden Glimpse of Clarity,' that we see moments of Moonscape as its most daring and colorful," states Head-Banger Reviews. "An emotionally charged creation that builds off what Moonscape has been carefully composing since its debut album nine years ago, 'A Sudden Glimpse of Clarity' is an absolute rollercoaster of emotions and intensity. Just as capable of breaking your very spirit down before building you back up, Moonscape navigates its ambition with passion, precision, and a deep knowledge of the elusive nature of progressive metal itself."

Entity, Chapter III: A Sudden Glimpse of Clarity is available digitally on all major streaming platforms and as a strictly limited jewel case CD edition (200 copies, 20-page booklet), exclusively through Moonscape’s Bandcamp page. https://moonscape.bandcamp.com/
