Mutant and Sparks & Shadows are proud to present Bear McCreary's latest album; The Singularity: Ekleipsis. The Singularity is the name of Emmy and BAFTA Award–winning composer Bear McCreary’s symphonic metal project. In 2024 McCreary released an ambitious hard-rock concept album of the same name. The album featured guest appearances by an extraordinary lineup of rock talent, including Serj Tankian (System of a Down), Corey Taylor (Slipknot), Rufus Wainwright, and more. Now McCreary announces the release of The Singularity: Ekleipsis, the eagerly awaited follow-up album, which continues the metal saga of a damaged world in turmoil. Penned primarily by McCreary & and his multitalented brother, Brendan, Ekleipsis draws its name from the ancient Greek word meaning abandonment, and explores themes of disillusionment and perseverance through struggle. Rock and metal luminaries featured on the new album include Joe Duplantier (Gojira), Patrick Stump (Fallout Boy), Claudio Sanchez (Coheed and Cambria), Jens Kidman (Meshuggah), Alissa White-Gluz, Tim Henson (Polyphia), Steve Vai, Slash, Duff McKagan (Guns N’ Roses), Chad Smith (Red Hot Chili Peppers), Stewart Copeland (The Police), and more.
