Canadian melodic death and groove metal outfit SELIAS have officially unveiled “Nine Lives,” the title track and second single from their forthcoming full-length album.
The single is a dark and driving melodic death metal track exploring dissociation, emotional numbness, and the gradual loss of identity. Built around heavy guitar work, harsh vocals, and melodic passages, it carries a strong sense of momentum while capturing the contrast between feeling disconnected and fighting to break free. At its core is a push-and-pull between aggression and vulnerability, culminating in the defiant command: “Cut the wire.”

bout SELIAS
SELIAS is a Canadian melodic death and groove metal band founded in 2021. Combining crushing riffs, groove-driven rhythms, and powerful vocals, the band has developed a distinctive modern metal sound. Following their debut album HEADSHOT and 2025’s follow-up KILLKARMA, which reached 17th on the Metal Contraband radio charts, SELIAS returns with their highly anticipated third album, Nine Lives. The album pushes the band’s sound further, blending melody, atmosphere, and heaviness. Nine Lives introduces a heavier sound overall for the band, but staying true to the roots of the sound. Known for high-energy live performances, SELIAS has toured extensively across Canada and the United States over the past few years, building a growing international audience.
