Turkish prog-core group unleashes their first full-length studio album “The Crossing” worldwide.

“The Crossing” is now available worldwide via Famined Records. With previous singles like “Left Behind” and “Shipwrecked” premiering through Metal Injection and New Noise Magazine, we’re excited to be exclusively premiering the stream for the entire album now through The Noise, or grab your copy here.

Vocalist Selim Devirek expresses his enthusiasm towards this release: “It’s incredibly exciting for us to be releasing our first LP because we poured our hearts in it and we’ve been waiting for people to hear this for over a year. It’s strange and somewhat scary to open our hearts to the people we’ve never met but at the same time we can’t wait for people to hear it and feel the way we do. The Crossing is a passage through a new sound of Sails of Serenity and a passage through a new life for each member. We really feel that we’ve grown and turned into different people from when we were formed and we keep growing so our music keeps evolving with us. That is why this album feels so special for us and hopefully it will feel as special to the listeners.”
