1914 release new music video for ‘Pillars Of Fire (The Battle Of Messines)’

1914 have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Pillars Of Fire (The Battle Of Messiness), is taken from the World War One-themed Ukrainian blackened death metal band’s upcoming new album, Where Fear And Weapons Meet, which is scheduled to be released in October this year.

Speaking about the new song, vocalist Hptm. Ditmar Kumarberg says, “this song describes the terrible events of the Battle of the Messines Ridge that occurred from June 7-14, 1917 in Belgium, one of the most insane episodes of the Great War. Subjects of the British crown and ANZAC dug a huge tunnels under the German positions, packed them with hundreds of tons of explosives and blew them up. In one second, in just one moment, about 10,000 people died. They were simply torn to pieces. The human brain is always subject to non-trivial approaches to kill each other. The title of the track is a direct reference to the wonderful book by Jan Passingham – Pillars of Fire: The Battle of the Messines Ridge, also the movie Beneath Hill 60, and memories of the participants of this event. Some eyewitnesses described the scene as “pillars of fire”, although many also acknowledged this was indescribable.”
