Upstate NY/Canadaprogressive metalcore act **Sky of Ghosts** released their debut single "Live Leaves" on December 29th, 2025\. Composer **Nicholas Perry** creates all instrumentals, while **Jay Wells L'Ecuyer** is the man behind the vocals.

> "The song recounts a traumatic event involving the loss of a good friend, and the subsequent battle with PTSD." - Sky of Ghosts

"Life Leaves" starts with an immediate breakdown as chunky double bass drumming and guitar chugs lead into galloping riffs as brutal screams are matched by bright guitar leads. Sky of Ghosts reminds me a lot of early metalcore, creating a sound that is nostalgic but still feels modern. "Life Leaves" has a little bit of rawness to the production, furthering the old-school vibes, but as the song continues, explosively heavy breakdowns lead into modern prog melodies as shredding guitar leads showcase the band's technical proficiency. 

At just under 4 minutes, "Life Leaves" stays energetic and exciting throughout as dynamics change from bright screaming choruses to down-tempo breakdowns, to lightning-fast progressive riffage. In a final breakdown, a talking sample and screeching guitar dissonance leads into a slamming double bass drumming outro as visceral guitar riffs close out the track on a brutal note.

Fans of progressive metal, early metalcore, and modern metal will enjoy the impressive sound that Sky of Ghosts has for so early in their discography. You can stream "Life Leaves" available on all platforms now!
