Thrice Woven Lyrics – ​Seven Lions (feat. Kerli)

Seven Lions is threading cosmic threads into something sacred on Asleep In The Garden Of Infernal Stars, his second full-length dropping December 12 via Ophelia Records, and “Thrice Woven” ft. Kerli already feels like the album’s hushed heartbeat—a spellbound exhale where shadows dance with starlight.

This one’s pure Montalvo magic: a five-minute odyssey of swelling orchestral strings and bass drops that pulse like a ritual drum, blending his melodic dubstep roots with ethereal folk whispers from Kerli’s haunting vocals. It’s genre-agnostic electronic at its most immersive—think Opeth-inspired metal edges meeting Cradle of Filth’s gothic flair, all layered over introspective builds that unravel like a tapestry coming undone.

Thematically, it’s a meditation on entanglement: love as a thrice-bound knot, fragile fates woven in the dark garden of the soul, grappling with loss and luminous rebirth. Co-written in late-night sessions that bled into dawn, it’s Seven Lions stripping back the spectacle for something vulnerably vast, teased in a snippet during his October Ophelia showcase where fans lost it over that mid-song crescendo.

The album? It’s an 11-track reclamation project, born from Jeff Montalvo’s frustration with EDM’s echo chamber—too much noise, not enough soul. Clocking around 55 minutes, it’s a mythos expander: opener “Asleep In The Garden Of Infernal Stars” sets a cinematic tone, followed by bangers like “Breaking Me,” the dreamy “Delusional” ft. No/Me, Kerli’s double-duty on “By The Light Of The Moon” and this gem, Lilly Ahlberg’s aching “So Far Away,” and closers like “Breathe In Out Slowly” that linger like incense. No forced collabs overload; just purposeful guests amplifying his “straight Seven Lions” core—long-form evolutions that honor the music that first lit his fire. Official buzz hit his Insta in September, framing it as a love letter to the weirdos who built the scene.

Montalvo’s cresting a personal peak, six years past Worlds Apart’s genre-bending blueprint, fresh off sold-out Beyond The Veil residencies and that viral Lost Lands set blending tears with titans. The Santa Barbara soundscaper who fused dubstep with symphonies is ditching the chase for clicks, doubling down on orchestral depth and emotional arcs—tour dates for 2026 already stacking, from LA’s Shrine to NYC’s Terminal 5. It’s him owning the garden he’s tended all along.
