Metal De Facto - "Bacchanalia" (video)
Why the sad face?
Working like a slave
And there is nothing to gain?
Take my hand
I'll lead you so far away
Forget your misery
And dive into ecstasy
Wine flows for the God we love
And he knows the way to euphoria
All the lustful welcome to bacchanalia
The bliss of flesh
Now, time to undress!
The priestess' nectar
The wanton’s embrace
Take my hand
I'll lead you so far away
Forget your misery
And dive into ecstasy
Wine flows for the God we love
And he knows the way to euphoria
All the lustful welcome to bacchanalia
Take my hand
I'll lead you so far away
Forget your misery
And dive into ecstasy
Wine flows for the God we love
And he knows the way to euphoria
All the lustful welcome to bacchanalia
Οι Metal De Facto μας έρχονται από την Φινλανδία. Δημιουργήθηκαν προ τριετίας από τον κιθαρίστα Esa Orjatsalo (πρώην μέλος των Dreamtale) και τον μπασίστα Sami Hinkka των Ensiferum.
Μπάντα αποτελούμενη από έμπειρα μουσικά μέλη καθώς και οι υπόλοιποι προέρχονται από συγκροτήματα όπως οι Everfrost, Kiuas, Leverage κλπ. Τον περασμένο Νοέμβριο κυκλοφόρησε το ντεμπούτο των Metal De Facto υπό τον τίτλο "Imperium Romanum"...
Metal De Facto: «The Romans knew big time how important entertainment and life’s pleasures were to combat day-to-day stress and worries.
One such ritual was the Bacchanalia ("feast of Bacchus"), an extravagant Roman party including excessive drinking, food, orgies and fun in worship of the God of wine, fertility and harvest, Bacchus! We know how boring, stressful and frustrating the current home quarantine/social distancing life can be, and we know many of our fans haven’t enjoyed a good metal show for some time now.
Therefore in true Finnish "kalsarikännit" fashion (yes, we actually have a word for getting drunk and partying alone in your underwear at home) we are bringing the song back with a single release including an instrumental version, an exclusive karaoke version to enjoy at home (both in audio and video format), as well as a brand new music video with some epic footage from our first show ever in February! Take a journey back in time with us to that fun evening, sing along and don’t forget to party hard!»
Esa Orjatsalo: «As our band name states, it is pure heavy metal music just as we like it, it means that it is time to ‘Make Power Metal Great Again’! That is what Metal De Facto is all about. “Imperium Romanum” is an album made by a huge power metal fan for other power metal fans. We didn’t want to reinvent the wheel just for the sake of it, but we definitely also brought some fresh perspective into the songwriting. If I would hear this album when I was young, I would have been really excited!»
Bio: «The band was formed in late 2017 by Esa Orjatsalo (ex-Dreamtale) and Sami Hinkka (Ensiferum), who had met and discussed the deeper meanings of power metal in Ensiferum's tour bus. The line-up was soon completed with Atte Marttinen (ex-Kivimetsän Druidi), Benji Connelly (Everfrost), Mikko Salovaara (Leverage) and Mikael Salo (Everfrost).
The band promises to “Make Power Metal Great Again” with their powerful sound and epic concepts, ones that deal with different historical themes and mythologies. The idea was that every album would have a theme based on a certain country’s / culture’s history and mythology.
The debut album will deal with the Roman Empire and the many tales, true stories and philosophies associated with it. Each song is about a different aspect of this grand topic, and while being enjoyable as escapist storytelling in itself, also delves into the mindset of the different characters and people from whose perspectives the songs are written.»
