Marthe releases new music video for ‘To Ruined Altars…’

MARTHE has released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track To Ruined Altars…, is taken from the black metal solo artist’s upcoming debut album, Further In Evil, which is scheduled to be released later this month, via Southern Lord Recordings.

“‘To ruined altars you light no light’ is a popular Italian saying that means ‘wasting time on useless people or causes.’ I manipulated the sentence a bit in order to have an aesthetic sense; it means don’t waste candles or flowers on a broken or damaged altar since it won’t bring any benefit because of its condition. It also refers historically, for example, to women that can’t have kids anymore to point out that any kind of love, commitment, or engagement won’t result in having kids which was crucial to the family legacy in past ages,” MARTHE says.

“In general, it refers to anyone that feels trashed by someone that used to praise you before and then just lost interest. ‘My memories are dark books you burnt while walking away’ refers to losing love for places or situations when the people you used to enjoy them with are no longer there, so your memories are ruined forever and there’s nothing you can do about it. Sense of loss will prevail and all you live after it is haunted by the lost memory of gone days.”
