Lacuna Coil Unveils Powerful New Single "Oxygen" Ahead of Upcoming Album 'Sleepless Empire' and Announces UK Tour
Lacuna Coil has released their new single "Oxygen" on October 2, 2024, marking the first taste of their upcoming tenth album 'Sleepless Empire'. The track serves as a powerful exploration of emotional struggle and inner conflict, with lyrics conveying a sense of drowning in a toxic environment. "Oxygen" represents attempts at salvation that seem futile, creating a raw anthem of vulnerability, resilience, and the courage to face seemingly insurmountable challenges.
'Sleepless Empire' follows Lacuna Coil's 2019 album 'Black Anima' and reflects the band's observations on the chaos of a generation trapped in a digital world, exploring their search for true meaning in this era.
