'EVERYTHING IS COMING UP ROSES'
BRAND NEW SINGLE OUT 23/5/25
Absinthe Green began as a personal project in 2016, led by songwriter and producer Eirini ‘Absinthe Green’ in Dortmund, Germany. After moving back to Greece in 2019, Absinthe was joined by drummer Harry Mason, bassist Villy Pirris, and later guitarist Panos Economakis, forming the full band line-up. Since then, they’ve been captivating audiences with their emotionally charged sound, fusing pop elements, aggressive guitars, groovy rhythms, and a versatile vocal range.
Genres blur and definitions falter when it comes to Absinthe Green. Whether you call them Alternative Metal, Hard Rock, or something else entirely, their music is a rich tapestry of influences and life experiences. A critic once described them as “a melodic storm of beauty and heartbreak, both ferocious and tender.” Soul-stirring vocals shift seamlessly between power and fragility, while skilful guitar work and infectious grooves underpin melodies that cut straight to the core.
Absinthe’s song-writing is raw and unflinching, revealing deep truths about love, pain, and redemption. Their lyrics explore life’s duality - where joy and sorrow, hope and despair coexist in an ever-shifting dance. The band’s debut album, Of Love and Pain, produced by renowned producer Hiili Hiilesmaa, will be released in 2025. It ventures into the contradictions of the human experience, where destruction and creation, light and darkness, merge in a symphony of emotional depth and power.

“Everything’s Coming Up Roses” by Black (Colin Vearncombe) is a song that has always echoed in the darker corners of my memory. As Absinthe Green, we chose to cover it not only for its haunting beauty, but because it carries the kind of emotional weight that never fades. Originally released in 1987, the track didn’t find immediate success, but over time it has become a cult classic, beloved by those who hear its quiet sorrow and strange hope. Black’s voice - smooth, smoky, and effortlessly aching - was a soundtrack to my childhood. It drifted through my early years like a ghost, shaping my sensitivity to melody and mood. There’s something cinematic and tragic in the way he delivers his words, something that resonates deeply with the gothic undercurrents that define Absinthe Green. Covering this song is more than homage, it’s a conversation with the past, a way to honour an artist whose work still feels painfully overlooked. Though Black left this world in 2016, his presence lingers in every note. With this version, we hope to pull his voice once more into the light, and maybe help others feel what I felt, long ago, hearing it for the first time". - Eirini 'Absinthe Green'
