Battle Beast release new music video for ‘Master Of Illusion’

BATTLE BEAST have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Master Of Illusion, is taken from the Finnish power metal band’s upcoming new album, Circus Of Doom, which is scheduled to be released in January next year.

“Our goal was to make an interesting and absorbing album, with both lighter party songs and heavier stuff as well. In a way the whole album is like a joyful day at the circus. Full of enchanting surprises and wild carnival atmosphere,” explains keyboardist Janne Björkroth about the upcoming album.

Continuing to speak about the new song, Janne adds, “the first single from the upcoming BATTLE BEAST album, Master Of Illusion, is a groovy and catchy song that makes dance floors roar and disco balls explode. The story of the song is about a self-centered, greedy, narrow-minded, and thoughtless character, who sows destruction all around without listening to or respecting others. The character may represent various things in the many arenas of power – for example, those of personal relationships, as well as in politics, and everywhere in between. Despite these heavy themes, there is playfulness in the composition, lyrics, and production, and the small twinkle in the corner of the eye that characterises BATTLE BEAST.”
