Schwarzes Fragment - The Lack Of Yourself (Any Second Remix By Jan K.)

Fernando Honorato, the acclaimed singer and songwriter of Swedish post-punk band Principe Valiente, will release his debut solo album "Center of Your World" on June 13th. Released under the new moniker Fernando's Eyes, the album will be available digitally as well as on CD and vinyl via Aenaos Records (Germany) and Icy Cold Records (France).

“Center of Your World" finds Honorato venturing into a deeply introspective and emotionally stripped-down sound. Drawing on his early musical influences, the album blends elements of dark pop, post-punk and cinematic textures to explore themes of vulnerability, personal growth and the complexity of human experience.

The album's second single - and title track - released on May 2nd captured the longing and desire to be part of a loved one's world, expressed in a classically romantic tone. With its lullaby-like quality, the track navigates the struggle of not quite breaking through - but does so with striking beauty and optimism. This track showcases the warmer, more organic side of the album, while the first single 'A Million Times' offered a more delicate, electronic-based production and introduced listeners to the album's introspective tone.

"I am very excited about this new chapter in my artistic journey and experimenting with new ways of writing music", says Honorato. Center of Your World promises to be an immersive listening experience that invites listeners to reflect on the beauty and fragility of human connection.

The band has announced additional releases for late summer, promising a wave of new material that builds on their legacy while exploring new sonic territory.
