RivetSkull have recently shared a lyric video for their latest single, “Eyes of a Fallen Angel.” The track is taken from their upcoming album, Absence of Time, set for release on June 14th. The song follows the group’s debut single, “Hellbound.
In celebration of the album’s release, RivetSkull will join Artillery on their 40th-anniversary tour throughout June. They will share the stage with fellow support acts Vapor and War Curse.

The group comments on the single:

“‘Eyes of a Fallen Angel’ tackles the concept of the universal ‘fight’ – the personal struggles we all face, big or small. The lyrics encourage understanding another’s perspective but remind us that time waits for no one. Musically, (this song) marks a fresh direction for the band. While our signature heavy riffs remain a driving force, the addition of lush keyboards and vocal harmonies infuse the track with a modern, crossover appeal. It’s a powerful blend of heavy metal energy and catchy pop sensibilities – a perfect 2nd single to introduce a new sonic chapter for RivetSkull.”

On the album, RivetSkull stated:

“‘Absence of Time’ feels like a culmination of everything we’ve been building towards. It’s not just a collection of songs, it’s a unified statement of who we are. Heavy metal has always been a lifeline for us, a way to channel our struggles and find strength in a community of like-minded souls. With this record, we want to extend that lifeline to our listeners. We want them to hear the experiences they share, the battles they’ve fought, and know that they’re not alone. This is heavy metal as catharsis, as connection, and as a celebration of the power of shared experience.”
