Dutch extreme metal band Cryptosis have filmed a music video for the track ‘Death Technology’. Produced by Full Force Films, the clip can be viewed below.
Regarding the song, the band stated: “For decades, people have tried to store their deceased bodies using low-temperature freezing techniques. This song is about a person who wakes up from cryosleep in the year 2149 and realises he is being detained and used as a test subject in a secret lab.
“The lyrics describe a technology that is very advanced and complex seen through the eyes of the test subject. The music is a reflection of that intricate technology. The riffs are built in a technical and extremely fast paced style. Whereas the structure of the song is built in the opposite direction, resembling the old yet simple world that this person is coming from.”
Cryptosis issue debut full-length studio album Bionic Swarm on March 26th, 2021 through Century Media Records.
Bionic Swarm was recorded by Olaf Skoreng and mixed by Fredrik Folkare. Mastering duties fell to Tony Lindgren at Fascination Street Studios in Örebro, Sweden.
Cover artwork was created by Eliran Kantor.
