Blood Incantation release new music video for ‘Luminescent Bridge’
BLOOD INCANTATION have released a new music video!
The new music video, for the track Luminescent Bridge, is the brand new single from the American death metal band and marks their first new music since 2019’s Hidden History Of The Human Race and 2022’s ambient Timewave Zero.
The new single was recorded at Rocky Mountain Recorders Studio in Denver, Colorado with Chris McNaughton, and was mixed and mastered by Arthur Rizk [KREATOR, CAVALERA CONSPIRACY, POWER TRIP].
Speaking about the new song and its accompanying music video, the band says, “originally conceived as an acoustic interlude in the tradition of Meticulous Soul Devourment and (Mirror Of The Soul), Luminescent Bridge quickly became something entirely different upon entering Rocky Mountain Recorders in March 2023. Compelled by a tangible air of creativity, we forwent acoustic instruments entirely and ended up implementing several spur-of-the-moment ideas – such as drums, grand piano and even trombone – to create a vast, dynamic tapestry of textures both alien and familiar, yet remaining quintessentially BLOOD INCANTATION in feeling and atmosphere. Drenched in analog and digital synthesizers, multiple tape echoes and soaring electric guitar, this intended outro to a subsequently abandoned 7″ EP became a towering landscape of otherworldly sonics, earning its place as the title track for our latest maxi-single release.”
With this expansive energy in mind, we knew the eventual music video would similarly have to be something completely new for us, further evolving our imagery and aesthetic into new realms as we make our way towards our imminent third album. Thanks to the masterful VFX and cinematography of our friends Miles Skarin and Alex Pace who also worked on the music videos Inner Paths (To Outer Space) and Obliquity Of The Ecliptic, and the Timewave Zero live Blu-Ray, respectively – we are able to present to you the official video for Luminescent Bridge.”

Speaking about the new song’s accompanying music video, director and visual effects artist Miles Skarin says, “when the Stargate Research Society asked us to help visualise a recent extrasolar communication they had received, we knew this would be a project of epic proportion. The data packet they sent to us from Colorado contained footage of BLOOD INCANTATION‘s interstellar expedition to a distant star system. What we saw after decompressing the video stream blew us away, not only had they captured a beautiful cinematic exploration of the exoplanet’s sand dunes, but we can see their journey across the expanse of space was successful. Alex Pace‘s cinematography from this location was stunning and provided us with everything we needed. Due to the solar radiation exposure, the data from the interstellar voyage was difficult to decipher, so we have used our artistic abilities in VFX and 3D animation to reconstruct the visual of crossing the Luminescent Bridge, first depicted by the artist Steve R Dodd.”
