Die schwedischen Melodic-Death-Metal-Pioniere At The Gates veröffentlichen heute die erste Single aus ihrem kommenden Album The Nightmare Of Being (erscheint am 2. Juli 2021 über Century Media Records), um den heutigen Albumvorbestellungsstart zu unterstützen.
Hört euch den epischen Eröffnungstrack Spectre Of Extinction hier an (Premiere heute 18:00 Uhr):
Zur Youtube-Premiere wird At The Gates-Sänger Tomas Lindberg Rendant via Livechat rede und Antwort stehen.
Tomas Lindberg Redant äußerte sich zu Spectre Of Extinction, einem Track mit einem Gastauftritt von King Diamond-Gitarrist Andy La Rocque an der Leadgitarre, und dessen Videoclip, der unter der Regie von Patric Ullaeus (www.revolver.se / Arch Enemy, In Flames, Dimmu Borgir, etc.) entstand, wie folgt: „It is always very hard to choose which song to release to the public first, especially with this album having so many layers and textures. We did feel, however, that this, the opening track of the record, represented the overall feel of the album. It has the musical depths that you would expect from an At The Gates track, and still carries that intensity and urgency that we have always tried to get across with our music.
For the video, it was wonderful to be able to continue the work with the mighty Patric Ullaeus, as he understands our vision with the music and is willing to go all the way to portray the song’s inner dimensions. I think he did that excellently with this one and I’m very proud of the result. The lyrics deal with humanity’s will and how that clashes with our consciousness, and our knowledge of our mortality. Enjoy!“
