New Album, Scorched Earth, Out January 24th Via AOP Records
Austrian post-black metallers Harakiri for the Sky are back with a vengeance, unveiling an intense new music video for the new single “Keep Me Longing” that perfectly encapsulates their signature blend of raw emotion and dreamy soundscapes. The video, directed by Tim Hanke-Zilles, is premiering on Youtube at 18:00 CET today: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=psYrzpTWlFo
“With our latest video for the song “Keep Me Longing” we wanted to write a storyline that plays with two heavy contrasts: Two protagonists, which handle the feeling of loss and despair in two completely oppositional ways. One tries to get rid of his negative feelings by autoaggression in loneliness and the other one finds distraction in the vastness of the city and destructive behaviour. And I think that’s also what life is about: Antagonism and contrasts and how you handle them”, the band comments.
