“Separate Ways” by Journey has always held a special place in my heart, so when I heard that Exit Eden was taking on this iconic track, my anticipation soared.
And let me tell you, Clémentine Delauney (Visions of Atlantis), Anna Brunner (League of Distortion), and Marina La Torraca (Phantom Elite) absolutely nailed it. Their rendition of this ’80s classic is nothing short of breathtaking. If one is familiar with Exit Eden‘s collective or individual vocal prowess, it was evident that these symphonic metal goddesses would deliver a stellar cover.
On the song the band says,
“Our version of this Journey classic is a tribute to rock ‘n roll and timeless tunes. We are thrilled to retell this musical tale with our own voices and share it with you today.”
Featured on their upcoming sophomore album, Femme Fatales (January 12, Napalm Records), Exit Eden takes “Separate Ways” to new heights. While preserving the original song’s emotional core, the trio infuses it with a fresh, heartfelt, and immensely powerful edge. Their harmonies, coupled with pulsating bass drums, and a symphonic infusion, transform the track into a flawless cover that commands attention.
