EXILED HOPE, the brainchild of Sofia Frasz. has released the soundtrack for the film What Happens After Midnight. The album was previously available on Bandcamp only.
Sofia comments, “The soundtrack to What Happens After Midnight is my highest-selling release on Bandcamp, and the film has long since surpassed 100k views on YouTube, so I thought it made sense to release it on all platforms. It’s definitely not your typical Exiled Hope album, but it’s not supposed to be; it represents the soundtrack influence that you can hear throughout the rest of my releases, and I welcome more opportunities to compose music specifically for films, as I did for What Happens After Midnight. These are always fun creative exercises because above all else, soundtracks are about setting the scene and telling a larger story through the music.”

About EXILED HOPE:
Multi-instrumentalist Sofia Frasz established EXILED HOPE in 2019, and draws musical inspiration from the likes of AVANTASIA, NIGHTWISH, KAMELOT and CRADLE OF FILTH to name a few. EXILED HOPE’s releases all take place in the same fictional universe and combine to form a dark fantasy metal opera. Each album centers on a character dealing with both an internal and external conflict in this world, and the lyrics explore how they navigate those conflicts. This is intended to provide some kind of escapism through the lyrical worldbuilding, while still keeping the songs grounded in real, relatable emotions despite their fantastical setup. EXILED HOPE is working towards the next album, Apocrypha, due to be released in late 2024. Through EXILED HOPE, Sofia has composed music for two short films, Hallowed Paths and What Happens After Midnight, and has collaborated with UK melodeath outfit STEEL FORGE.
