Cold Night For Alligators release new music video for ‘Verism’

COLD NIGHT FOR ALLIGATORS have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Verism, is the brand new single from the Danish progressive metal quartet and follows on from the release of Nostalgic, which was released back in July. The new single gives a further indication into the band’s upcoming third studio album, which is expected to be released in 2022.

Speaking about the new song and its accompanying live performance video, the band says, “we come from a scene where everything is produced and edited very tightly and doesn’t leave much of a human touch. Everything sounds perfect and we wanted to do something that goes a little bit against this. So for the video, we decided to do a live session with a talented pianist and some cool back-up singers we used on the upcoming record. The song itself is very straightforward, tight and meticulous, so it was really fun to open up the arrangement a bit – it feels like a different beast and a cool contrast to the studio version.”

Vocalist Johan Pederson also had a slightly different approach to lyrics this time around. Commenting on the lyrics, he adds, “this is one of the more meta lyrics I’ve done, where I reflect on the effect of writing about stuff that can feel a bit voyeuristic. Art needs to exhibit the real and thereby also the extreme, ugly and vulgar. But it can have a harsh psychological effect, as you step into that space mentally. If it’s not my own story I have to get as close as I can emotionally.”
