Dutch heavy metal band Black Knight have released an official lyric video for the title track of their latest album Road To Victory. Directed by Sebastiaan Spijker, the clip can be viewed below.
Commenting about the song last year, the band stated: “Seventy-five years after the end of World War II, we dedicate this song to all warriors who stood together and fought for the freedom we enjoy today. But even at present, freedom and liberty are under pressure from the COVID-19 pandemic. Moreover, in many parts of the world liberty has only relative meaning anyway…
“Let this song be a reminder that together we are strong and together we can overcome any obstacles that stand in the way of equal rights and equal chances for everyone. Stand up and fight, Fight side by side, Divided we’ll fall, All for one and one for all…”
Black Knight issued third full-length studio album Road To Victory on June 26th, 2020 through Pure Steel Records.
Road To Victory was recorded and mixed by Gertjan Vis at Captain Hook Studio and The Flying Fish Studios in the Netherlands. Mastering duties fell to Jacob Hansen at Hansen Studios in Ribe, Denmark.
The track ‘The One To Blame’ is a re-arranged and re-recorded version of the song ‘I’m The One To Blame’, which originally appeared on the band’s 1986 demo cassette.
