Zeal & Ardor release new music video for ‘Gravedigger’s Chant’

ZEAL & ARDOR have released a brand new music video!

The new music video, for the track Gravedigger’s Chant, is taken from the band’s upcoming new album Stranger Fruit which is scheduled to be released in June this year! The upcoming album was produced by Zebo Adam and mixed by Kurt Ballou (CONVERGE, KVELERTAK, NAILS) and speaking about the new song and music video, band mastermind Manuel Gagneux says, “the Gravedigger’s Chant is the song sung by the people who lay your body to rest. These people don’t care where you were, but they know what you did and who loved you. All they know is what lies before them. So they sing this song, since you can no longer breathe a note. Our intent is both to familiarise as well as alienate. The video of Gravedigger’s Chant subverts roles: People find themselves in situations untypical for their ilk, tools become weapons, weapons turn into tools, and fingers meant for sensing make themselves felt.”
