Sinoptik release new music video for ‘Black Soul Man’

SINOPTIK have released a new music video!

The new song, titled Black Soul Man, is the brand new single from the Ukrainian occult rock band. Since 2014, the band were forced to move from their war-torn city of Donetsk to Kiev, and their experiences of being treated like second class citizens despite Ukraine being their native home has now seen them throw their hat in the ring as a band with a story to tell and music to be heard.

Speaking about the experience of moving to Kiev, vocalist Dmitriy Afanasiev says, “we had to leave our home and move to Kiev, and this where we as native Ukrainians were treated as some sort of second class citizens. So many people like us were segregated and oppressed just on the basis of the city of origin, where we were born. We were told that we are different and it’s our fault the war started. We were faced with radical social segregation and inequality, in our own country with people of the same race. We do understand that this oppression is initiated and supported by politicians, but society is now responsible for this too.”

Speaking about the meaning behind the new song, Dmitriy Afanasiev adds, “music is a tool, which should have a clear message – to change the world for better. ‘It’s your time to change the fate’ is our main message in this song, as each of us can change his or her own destiny. And if we are united all together we have the power to alter the fate of humanity and the world. We all can change and make our planet a better place by becoming kinder to each other, more understanding and tolerant. We need to build a new future now. Now is the time for us to unite, but most of the people don’t seem to comprehend that.”
