Crowen's new single The Unwritten End tells a story where every step is both a beginning and an ending. The song portrays the dreamworld as a place that is dark yet beautiful. Its protagonist walks toward the unknown, carrying with him both uncertainty and the inevitability of fate, striving to escape a world with no way out.

The melody is sorrowful yet beautiful. The clean vocals in the choruses inspired the song's entire melodic landscape. In the verses, melodic passages and heavy rhythms alternate. The opening contrasts Crowen's traditional death metal assault with acoustic guitar and a calm, atmospheric mood. "Guitarist Sami Sandberg managed to fit the melodic line perfectly into the song's atmosphere. Listening to Sami's playing gives me a hypnotic feeling," says vocalist-songwriter Esa Uusimaa.

Crowen is a Finnish melodic death metal band consisting of Esa Uusimaa and guitarist Sami Sandberg. On this track, the bass is played by Tuomas Saukkonen.
