Russian black metal solo project Bizarrekult have filmed a music video for the title track of forthcoming album Den Tapte Krigen. Directed by Andrew Bam, the clip can be viewed below.
Speaking about the song and video, Bizarrekult mastermind Roman V. said: “‘Den Tapte Krigen’ (The Lost War) is a reflection on the everyday battle that consumes everything inside and outside, exploding the minds and deforming our personalities. Is it worth it? What do we gain? How much (and whom) do we loose on the way to ‘victory’?
“A bit of classical ‘Don Quixote’ by Cervantes plus a bit of post-modernist Pilevin ‘Life Of Insects’ might hint on how the lyrics, choice of languages and visuals are connected.”
Bizarrekult issue second full-length studio album Den Tapte Krigen (English translation: ‘The Lost War’) on January 27th, 2023 through Season Of Mist.
“The main message of Den Tapte Krigen is about a constant war inside our lives, war with ourselves, our closest ones, our societies,” commented mastermind Roman V. “It’s a war in which we can lose everything, including our personality, faith, honour and dignity. However, similar to Vi Overlevde that ends on a rather positive note, Den Tapte Krigen contains a message of hope and reconnection, of necessity to make a peace with yourself, accept what you are, your identity, and share forgiveness and love. This is the only way out of the vicious circle.”
The track ‘Kongen’ can be streamed below.
Den Tapte Krigen was mixed and mastered by Miguel Tereso of Demigod Recordings.
Cover artwork was designed by Ivan Gladkikh.
