Leprous release new music video for ‘The Silent Revelation’

LEPROUS have released a brand new music video!

The new music video, for the track The Silent Revelation, is taken from the Norwegian progressive metal band’s upcoming new album, Aphelion, which is scheduled to be released in August this year.

Speaking about the upcoming album, vocalist/keyboardist Einar Solberg says, “we had no plans to start with a new album, then came COVID. Aphelion is a very different album. It’s intuitive and spontaneous. We’ve experimented with many completely different ways of writing music and explored new ways to work. There has been no room for overthinking, exaggerated perfectionism or carefully planned songs. I believe this is one of the strengths of this album. It feels alive, it feels free and it does not come across as too calculated.

The album was recorded in three different studios, and a few of the songs were actually recorded in all three studios, Ghost Ward StudiosOcean Sound Recordings and Cederberg Studios. The aphelion is the point in the orbit of an object where it is farthest from the sun, and it has a symbolic value which I will leave to your own interpretation.”

Aphelion is set for release on August 27th via InsideOut Music. Pre-orders are available now and can be purchased here.
