Athena XIX present the third single from their new album “Everflow Part 1: Frames Of Humanity”, which will be released on October 25th, 2024 via Reigning Phoenix Music (RPM). “I Wish” is a magnificent new hymn by the Italian cult progressive quintet, and features no less than vocalist Roy Khan (Conception, ex-Kamelot) as counterpart to front-man Fabio Lione (Angra, ex-Rhapsody Of Fire, a.o.), creating a brilliant duet that many melodic/power/symphonic metal maniacs thought they would never hear.

“Finally me and Roy together on one song! I was really happy to know that he liked the song and wanted to be part of this new Athena XIX record, he was free to improvise and to record his parts the way he wanted to. I just sent him the song with my vocals and let him freely add and sing in the moments he preferred to and I have to say that the combination is amazing! Our two voices combine very well! I’m sure that fans will love it! It’s a really nice and cool song, with a great chorus in my opinion, one of the best tracks on this record and a perfect choice thinking about Roy’s voice and style”,
