Info for Ephemeral Triumphs (EP)

Ephemeral Triumphs marks the band’s second EP under Wormholedeath, delivering a blend of raw emotion, experimental textures, and unflinching heaviness.

In a statement from the band, they shared, "It’s been a very long road for this project, over 27 years. While there was a hiatus between 2012-2017 for personal reasons, the project has always continued to compose new music, evolve, and pursue new things. Even at this moment, the next recording is already taking shape."

Ephemeral Triumphs features three reimagined tracks originally written between 2005–2012 and one newer piece, “Emergence,” with early demos dating back to 2017. Musically, the EP ventures into more experimental ground, infusing alternative metal roots with moody atmospheres, dynamic shifts, and guest saxophone work from Tommi Palomäki.

Relicon was founded in 1998 by Antti-Pekka Meronen as a solo project, RELICON has undergone significant evolution over the years. After releasing two demos in 2002 and 2003, the project transformed into a full five-piece band by 2005, followed by the addition of a keyboardist and the release of a fourth demo in 2008. Despite a brief disbandment and a hiatus from 2012 to 2017, RELICON resurfaced in 2024 with the EP "Consequences of Disbelief," also released via Wormholedeath. The current lineup, featuring drummer Mikko Kuhno and long-time bassist Tuukka Mauranen, has brought new energy to the project, culminating in the release of "Ephemeral Triumphs" in 2025.
