Face The Legacy release new music video for ‘Ashes On The Ground’

FACE THE LEGACY have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Ashes On The Ground, is the brand new single from the Finnish rock quartet and comes as they sign to new label Out Of Line Music. The band will release their debut full-length record through the label, which is expected to be released later this year.

Speaking about singing to Out Of Line Music, FACE THE LEGACY says, “we are pleased to announce that we have signed a worldwide record deal, which has always been a goal of ours since the beginning. First of all, as a band, we are excited to do our first record with Out Of Line, and we are happy that they believe in us. Co-operation with Out Of Line has been really good, and we are also really looking forward to the future with them.”

Speaking about the new song, vocalist Niklas Lindeman says, “as the writer of the song lyrics, I wanted to show a way for you to question maybe the ongoing problems in the world – the ethical side in particular. The song came together quite naturally, and we knew straight away that we had something great in our hands. Ashes on the Ground also gave a straightforward direction to the whole album.” 

Explaining the search for the location for the song’s accompanying music video, bassist Aleksanteri Skaniakos says, “we shot the playing sections of our music video at Tanssisali Lutakko, our local legendary venue. We’re thankful for the staff there for letting us film the video there and being as helpful as ever. The story parts were filmed by our cameraman Teemu Myöhänen from KarmaMedia in Southern Finland, the Capital area. He scripted the video, and we really liked his ideas, for example, setting the man on fire for the solo section of the song.”

Hinting at the upcoming as-of-yet unannounced debut album, guitarist Elias Suhonen says, “we’d say it creates a dark, angry and inspirational atmosphere. Themes for the songs come from very personal experiences, from issues we’ve faced and that we wanted to make a difference in.”

“As of now, with the signing to Out Of Line, the band means everything to us. We want to show that we’re putting our maximum effort when it comes to writing music, evolving as musicians, and of course as a band,” confirms Niklas. And Elias agrees. “To me, this band is that I can make the music I love. Our music is a nice blend of the music I listen to in my everyday life. Signing a record deal has been on my bucket list since I found rock music as a kid, and that’s what makes me work hard for my dreams. I also totally agree with Niklas. This band means everything to me!”
