Esprit D'Air release new single, "Broken Mirror" from the upcoming album Aeons

Esprit D'Air have unveiled their latest track Broken Mirror on October 24, the sixth and final single before the release of their fourth studio album Aeons, arriving on November 7, 2025.

Frontman Kai explains:

"Broken Mirror is one of more aggressive, heavy, and dark songs from the Aeons album. This song came from a time where I felt crushed by my own expectations and by what others expected of me. This song is about living with the voice in your head that tells you you're never good enough. It's about breaking free from the weight of expectations, from others and from yourself."

Kai describes Aeons as a body of work that reflects how time can confine us, challenge us, and force us to confront who we are. These songs emerged in an age of instability, division, and global crises, but also capture resilience, hope, and the possibility of renewal. Within the despair lies a spark of optimism — a reminder that even in darkness, a way forward still exists.

Esprit D'Air is helmed by guitarist and producer Kai — also a current member of The Sisters of Mercy — alongside drummer Vincent Velazco (ex-Ghost, Pendragon), bassist Takeshi (ex-MergingMoon), and guitarist Yusuke.

After touring ten countries across Europe in venues reaching 1,500 capacity, Esprit D'Air will return to the stage this winter for a grassroots run across the UK and Ireland in support of Aeons. Opting for smaller venues, the band want to deliver the raw impact of their new music up close. The tour also includes a rescheduled Barcelona date following last year's unexpected nationwide power outage.

While previous records featured high-profile collaborations with Ben Christo (The Sisters of Mercy), Ryo Kinoshita (ex-Crystal Lake, Knosis), Tim 'Ripper' Owens (ex-Judas Priest, KK's Priest), and Heavygrinder, Aeons is a self-contained creation, fully written and produced by the band themselves.

"Broken Mirror" is out now on all streaming platforms, while the full-length studio album Aeons arrives November 7, 2025.
