Athens, Greece-based thrash metal band Amken have filmed a music video for the track ‘Somewhere Past The Burning Sun’. Directed by Haris Kountouris (HK Visual Creations), the clip can be viewed below.
Regarding the song, the band stated: “‘Somewhere Past The Burning Sun’ is a very personal song. It’s like talking to yourself in the mirror, trying to remind you to keep pushing and keep going forward. It’s hard to live as yourself in a world that rewards homogeneity, but it is worth the try!”
Amken issued second full-length studio album Passive Aggression on August 26th, 2022 through Massacre Records.
Passive Aggression was produced by Fotis Benardo and Amken at Devasoundz Studios in Athens, Benardo additionally mixing. Mastering was handled by George Neratzis, meanwhile.
