Ayreon premiere two new songs from the upcoming studio album Transitus, due out September 22nd. "Hopelessly Slipping Away" and "Get out! Now!" are streaming as official video clips. The first one was created by Crystal Spotlight and the second one by David Letelier.

Statement from Ayreon: Welcome to the colorful world of.. Transitus! Finally the time has come to present you the very first full singles and lyric videos of the new Ayreon album Yes... singleS, plural! This album is incredibly diverse so I really couldn't choose just one track because I wouldn't want people to get the wrong impression of the overall mood of the album. So we decided to make a video for both an atmospheric track "Hopelessly Slipping Away" and a rocky track "Get out! Now!"




"Hopelessly Slipping Away" features Tommy Karevik (Kamelot) and Cammie Gilbert (Oceans Of Slumber) on vocals. It's a haunting track with analog synthesizers and violin, and it slowly builds to an epic climax with marching snares. In this video we see the ghost of Daniel (Tommy) hopelessly trying to reach out to his beloved wife Abby (Cammie) who clearly feels his presence but can't see or hear him."




"The track "Get Out! Now!" is a straightforward and energetic rock track with powerful drums, bass, guitars and Hammond organ. It features the illustrious Dee Snider (Twisted Sister) and Tommy Karevik on vocals, and none other than the legendary Joe Satriani plays a blistering guitar solo. In this story Daniel's intolerant father (Dee) banishes Daniel (Tommy) from his estate for having a forbidden affair with their servant Abby."
