Perils of the Deep Blue is the sixth full-length album by the Norwegian gothic metal band Sirenia. It was released on June 28, 2013 in Europe, July 1 in the United Kingdom and July 9 in North America through Nuclear Blast.
Produced by Morten Veland, it was mastered and mixed by Endre Kirkesola at Dub Studios in Norway. The cover art is by artist Anne Stokes, and was discovered by Veland by chance via the Internet.
Ailyn joined a Norwegian choir in 2012 to get some training and also inspiration for the upcoming release. According to Morten, the writing process took two years. He began writing for the album before the release of their previous one.
