Iotunn release new music video for ‘Iridescent Way’

IOTUNN have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Iridescent Way, is taken from the Danish/Faroese progressive metal band’s upcoming new album, Kinship, which is scheduled to be released in October this year, via Metal Blade Records.

Speaking about the new song, guitarist Jesper Gräs says, “it has been our wish for years to make an acoustic song. [Guitarist] Jens Nicolai [Gräs] and I have origins in playing classical guitar and this, combined with the folk tradition in the North as well as in the West as such, has been a huge gift and inspiration throughout the years. The intro and outro part came to me in a dream, and I woke up and played it. It laid a foundation for this song which is very special to the whole band, and we hold it very dearly.”

Guitarist Jens Nicolai agrees, “it’s clearly a stand-out song on the album. Finally, we pulled ourselves together to do something like this. There‘s no brave or out-of-box decisions here. Just us doing something that also feels natural to us.”
