Pale Alison
OUR STORY
Pale Alison is a melancholic modern metal band from Estonia, blending sharp, driving metalcore riffs with sweet vocal harmonies and atmospheric sounds. Formed in 2019, their music is rooted in raw, live emotions - crafted into vivid lyrics and melodies that resonate long after the final note.
Known for their experimentation, Pale Alison pushes the boundaries of modern metal, bringing intelligence, honesty, and sophistication to a genre that often craves it. Their 2024 releases reflect this journey, starting with the EP ‘Novojezabytoe,’ where crunchy riffs meet vibrant electronic elements, followed by the progressive single ‘Summer’s Melody Slows Its Pace’. In 2024, the single became Hit of the Year on RockFM Radio.
Drawing inspiration from bands like Spiritbox, Northlane, and Tesseract, Pale Alison has established itself in the melodic modern metal genre with its recent releases.

bipolarity
Directed by Luka Dzidzadze & Daniil Volotskoi, 2024
The lyrics of the song take the listener on a complex inner journey, where the main character struggles with his dual nature - between the desire for freedom and the attraction to chaos, which destroys him, but at the same time fills him with life. This is a struggle for control over his "I", which becomes a metaphor for the mental, emotional and spiritual state.
It is this concept of dual nature that became the basis for Pale Alison's unique image - the depiction of two completely different vocalists who embody freedom and chaos.
Toska

The track is part of the self-titled album "Toska," released in 2022.
Anxiety or longing represents a creative dead end - a futile escape from oneself that leads to unbearable pain. The protagonist is a writer who cannot find inspiration for a new work. Desperate and hopeless, he clings to creativity as his last chance for salvation. However, he begins to feel as his own thoughts are pursuing him. In the end, his only option is to flee - to escape from himself.
