Fleshgod Apocalypse release new music video for ‘Pendulum’

FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Pendulum, is the brand new single from the Italian symphonic death metal band and marks their first new music since 2019’s Veleno.

The new single follows a period of recovery and rejuvenation for frontman Francesco Paoli, who in 2021 was involved in a tragic mountain climbing accident that left him clinging to life with years of recovery ahead, and ultimately inspiring the band’s first music in years. The new single was mixed and mastered by Grammy-nominated producer Jacob Hansen [VOLBEAT, EPICA, ARCH ENEMY].

Speaking about the new song, and its accompanying music video, Paoli says, “this is the first song we release since my ‘dance’ with death, back in August 2021. It’s obvious that such a life changing event would have affected our music. It took a toll on me, physically and mentally, and sharing my experience is also part of my healing process. Pendulum is just the opening chapter of a bigger story, which is yet to be told… The music video, realized by visionary Italian director Martina L. McLean, turned my unfortunate incident into a monumental visual experience, an awe inspiring blend of obscure symbolism, surreal architectures and nightmarish mythological creatures. It perfectly portraits the struggle and the desperation of that day, a day of defeat… but also the day of my rebirth.”
