Check out the new single/video now
“It’s been a while since we released the first single ‘ A Little Less Understanding’ from our upcoming album “Talviyö”, and now it’s time to reveal the next piece in the puzzle. This single ‘Cold’ is also our first music video from the album, with more to follow later on. We filmed the video in Tampere with the amazing Patric Ullaeus, and we had a blast once again. Just 2 more weeks until the whole album is out, meanwhile enjoy this treat. Cheers!”, comments Henrik “Henkka” Klingenberg
The new masterpiece of German epic metal pioneers EQUILIBRIUM, »Renegades,« is out now. The album is heralding a watershed, the turn of an era for this genre. This is metal at its most epic and most monumental, bearing huge songs, resting firmly in the Zeitgeist with a massive, modern production and sporting quite a number of eclectic influences. Above all, it’s still EQUILIBRIUM – quite possibly more than ever.
In celebration of the momentous event, the band offer fans a music video for ‘Final Tear.’ Check out the infectious song and video here.
The band states: “Finally the wait is over and we can release our new album »Renegades« today. We have put a lot of work and passion into this record, and as a result we have our most personal album so far. At the same time we are releasing a music video for probably the most important song on this album, ‘Final Tear.’ EQUILIBRIUM has always written about respecting the planet and it’s inhabitants, especially those who are in the minority or have no voice. This song is exactly about that.”
OLA thrash metal legends EXHORDER have released a neck-snapping new thrash anthem today, dubbed ‘Hallowed Sound.’ The song is featured on the band’s first new album in 27 years, »Mourn The Southern Skies,« that’s due out September 20th from Nuclear Blast Records.
Watch the lyric video for ‘Hallowed Sound’ here.
Commenting on the new track, guitarist Vinnie LaBella says, “‘Hallowed Sound’ is one that keeps in the tradition of »The Law« era with some new twists and turns. Mid-tempo/slow, heavy grooves with a mean yet soulful Kyle Thomas singing about our beloved NOLA music history, and future!”
