Swedish metal band ELEINE release their new single and accompanying music video, “Watch As We Rise,” and unveil the artwork for their upcoming fifth studio album, ‘The Water Taste Of Blood.’ The album will be released independently on December 4th via the band’s own label, Algoth Records, with global distribution through Sound Pollution.
Where the first single, “Empire of Lies,” exposed deception and “We March” carried listeners through it, “Watch As We Rise” is the reckoning and the soundtrack to that empire’s collapse. The third single from ‘The Water Taste Of Blood’ is the band’s heaviest yet, built on chugging, in-your-face riffs and defiant vocals. It’s a song about getting back up in the middle of the fight and burning the whole thing to the ground.

In ELEINE’s own words:
“This is our song of reclaiming control of your own life. We’ve been through so much sh*t the past years. Buried under one pile after the other. ‘Watch As We Rise’ is a releasing song that fills you with power and determination through heavy chugging and in your face vocals.”

About ELEINE:
What began in southern Sweden has grown into a loyal global community united by music, perseverance, and the refusal to give up. Led by vocalist Madeleine Liljestam and guitarist/vocalist Rikard Ekberg, ELEINE have spent recent years building one of metal’s most dedicated fan communities through acclaimed releases, including a #1 album on the Swedish sales charts, successful headline tours, and a direct connection with their audience that extends far beyond the stage.
Along the way, the band has shared stages with Arch Enemy, Kamelot, PAIN, Sonata Arctica and W.A.S.P., while steadily building a headline presence of their own. Their 2024 European headline tour sold out multiple dates and led directly to a second headline run in spring 2025. Today, ELEINE connect with nearly 700,000 followers across their social and streaming platforms, while their music videos have surpassed 60 million views on YouTube. Now with ELEINE’s new album ‘Water Taste of Blood’ arriving December 4th, 2026, and their most extensive European and UK headline tour already underway, ELEINE are ready to be heard on the biggest stage of their career and continue to expand the world they have built together with the Legion, their fans, who have grown alongside them and who have become the heart of the band.
