Cemetery Skyline release new music video for ‘Violent Storm’

CEMETERY SKYLINE have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Violent Storm, is the debut single from the self-described ‘Nordic Gothic’ supergroup, which features Mikael Stanne [DARK TRANQUILITY], guitarist Markus Vanhala [INSOMNIUM, OMNIUM GATHERUM], keyboardist Santeri Kallio [AMORPHIS], bassist Victor Brandt [DIMMU BORGIR, WITHCERY] and drummer Vesa Ranta [SENTENCED, THE ABBEY].

“The weather forecast points to a Nordic gothic storm that is rising,” says guitarist Markus Vanhala. “The song mood is highly inspired by the late nightly empty roads of Goth-emburg and their desperate stories of loneliness and getting lost to the unique beautiful misery and sorrow of Nordic gothic.” Vocalist Mikael Stanne adds, “it’s about a built-up frustration and how it can get out of hand, the feeling of helplessness and how it can take over.” And keyboardist Santeri Kallio concludes, “it’s a simple, rocky song that represents the band perfectly.”

The new song’s accompanying music video that was filmed by Patric Ullaeus [rEvolver Film Company]. “The video is telling the story of how this weird gang of friends is literally coming together,” says Vanhala and Kallio adds, “we take a walk through an old cemetery and actually meet as a band for the very first time.”
