Tribulation release new music video for ‘Murder In Red’

TRIBULATION have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Murder In Red, is taken from the Swedish heavy metal band’s upcoming new album, Sub Rosa In Æternum, which is scheduled to be released in November this year, via Century Media Records.

Speaking about the new song, and its accompanying music video, guitarist Adam Zaars says, “draped in the velvet of violent cinema Murder In Red is our operatic homage to the beauty of the macabre. Haunting and deadly. With a lot of encouragement from the band, Brendan went full Giallo on the video, conjuring up his inner Argento to create this truly memorable music video filled with references and passion. It was a pleasure working both with him and Damon again!”

Brendan McGowan adds, “there’s no better way to visually embrace TRIBULATION’s evolution into their new sound than with a music video heavily inspired by 80’s Giallo classics like Blood and Black Lace, Inferno, and of course Suspiria. After hearing the first lyric ‘I found her by the side of the road/lips still glowing like embers’ the entire concept immediately revealed itself –
murder is terrifying, but what’s more terrifying than the self and the shadow? Our character hasn’t simply died, she’s ‘joined the dead’. We were fortunate enough to be able to film at a number of old and allegedly haunted locations in West Virginia with tons of cooperation from the folks in town (The video’s bartender at The Troubadour is the owner of the real Troubadour bar). Combining the psychedelic colours, nostalgic VHS footage, and Katrina’s hypnotising and dualistic performance with the cinematic language of 80’s Italian horror perfectly supports the eerie atmosphere of this very cool track by TRIBULATION. Special thanks to Damón Zurawski who returned to help with band footage and to Sylvia Poehler from The Troubadour in Berkeley Springs.”
