Amaranthe release new music video for ‘365’

AMARANTHE have released a brand new music video!

Fresh from their performance at this weekend’s Bloodstock Festival, the Swedish melodic metallers have released a brand new music video!

The new music video, for the track 365, is taken from the band’s upcoming new album Helix which is scheduled to be released this October.

Speaking about the track and accompanying music video, guitarist Olof Mörck says, “and so the time is finally NOW! We have been itching to release this monster of a track – 365 represents the AMARANTHE sound in every conceivable way. The foundation is the heaviest and most down-tuned soundscape we have produced to date, from the bone-crunching guitars and drums, all the way to the juggernaut keyboards kicking off the song. The 365 video was shot with Patric Ulleaus to perfectly counterpoint the take-no-prisoners approach of the song, undeniably demonstrating the unity and chemistry of the AMARANTHE line-up.

Continuing to speak about their forthcoming record, Mörck continues, “the Helix album itself is a statement, a declaration and an assertion that we are here to stay, and that the songwriting and musicianship has been honed and maximized to the highest level yet on an AMARANTHE record. The process of composing this album with Elize [Ryd] was as inspiring as it was smooth, and from a composer’s and arranger’s perspective, a dream collaboration. The time is nigh, the die is cast, and all the stars are right: the Helix will steamroll across the globe, and in its wake, the touring machine that is AMARANTHE will conquer all!” Vocalist Elize Ryd adds, Helix describes the concept of how the past forms us and how life makes us become. No excuses, no regrets. We express the challenges and the uplifting moments in time, and all that in between with the sounds that we love. We want to dedicate this album to all the fighters and friends out there.”
