Italian symphonic death metallers FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE have posted the lyric video for “Minotaur (The Wrath Of Poseidon),” which comes from their forthcoming new album, Labyrinth, which will be released on August 16 in Europe and August 20 in North America via Nuclear Blast Records. The video can be viewed below.
Comments FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE’s Francesco Paoli: “Labyrinth is going to be THE album for FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE. It’s the perfect combination of all our strong points with the best production we’ve ever had. It’s definitely the most FLESHGOD thing we’ve ever thought with the most FLESHGOD riffs, lyrics, melodies, drumparts, solos, etc. We went deep inside the core of this music, we broke it, and we finally unleashed these eleven songs.
“I want to be honest, it needed so much work and time to come up with this, but now I’m like, ‘OK, next time will be tough to reach this point!’
“Honesty and quality pay, always, and all of you guys supporting the band DESERVE THE BEST.
“You might think that I’m overrating it just because it’s our ‘child,’ but trust me, this album is fuckin’ dangerous. Just take your time, listen to it and get lost into the ‘Labyrinth’.”
Added Tommaso Riccardi: “The concept of this album is based on the myth of the Labyrinth of Knossos and every character related to it. We focused on the philological aspect in order to represent all the elements of the classic world and, through a manic and meticolous research, we managed to create a metaphor with our times, as the maze can be associated with the endless search for what we really are. We’re sure you will be stunned by this as much as we are.”
