Witherfall - "Ode To Despair" (video)

Στην τελική ευθεία μπαίνουμε όσον αφορά την κυκλοφορία του νέου δίσκου των Witherfall. Ο διάδοχος του εξαιρετικού album "Nocturnes and Requiems" (δίσκος του 2017 για το Metal Daze) τιτλοφορείται "A Prelude To Sorrow" κι αναμένεται στις αρχές Νοεμβρίου. Το πρώτο βίντεο που "βγάζει" ο δίσκος αφορά το τραγούδι "Ode To Despair"...

Δελτίο τύπου: «"A Prelude To Sorrow" is the second studio album by US metal act Witherfall, the brainchild of Jake Dreyer (Iced Earth) and Joseph Michael (Sanctuary - live) offering dark melodic metal with a progressive edge. The album will be released as Limited Edition Digipak, jewelcase CD (US only), gatefold 2LP plus poster and etching on Side D as well as digital album.»

Witherfall: «Ode to Despair was the first composition that was completed for “A Prelude to Sorrow” so it only seems fitting to start off with this track.

Its origin traces back to around 2016 when we were figuring out what to do with Sagan being sick and unable to perform. Fueled by red wine and only a glimmer of the sorrow that was to come "Ode" took only one writing session to complete.

The video was shot over the two month span that we were in the studio tracking “A Prelude to Sorrow” and watching the video brings you into the world we inhabited for what seems like an eternity... Special thanks to Don Adams and his masochistic tendencies and keen editor’s eye. Stay tuned for more...»
