Draconian release new music video for ‘The Sethian’

DRACONIAN have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track The Sethian, is taken from the gothic doom metal band’s latest studio album, Under A Godless Veil, which was released back in October last year.

Speaking about the song, vocalist Anders Jacobsson says, “the writing of The Sethian started with Johan being inspired by a Nordic folksong. As the song transpired it mutated into a range of different variables and a quite different for being a DRACONIAN song. From bombastic and brutal, from doomy sadness to gothic soundscapes. The instrumentation and the vocal arrangements are poignant and commanding, something that marks The Sethian as one – if not the most well-received song of our new album.”

Video director Natalia Drepina adds, “each of us is trapped in a gloomy and oppressive place, where lies bleeding and the dark side of our soul obscures our eyes with doubts and regrets. But at the same time we can create entire universes in our dreams. And this golden light flickers in the darkness like sparks of hope.”
