AMBERIAN DAWN - New Video Premiered Online

Finnish female fronted symphonic metallers Amberian Dawn released a video clip for the track "I'm The One", taken from their forthcoming album Darkness Of Eternity, which will be released on 10th November via Napalm Records. Overwhelming and adventurous, more than music: watch the video for "I'm The One" in the player below.
Amberian Dawn mastermind Tuomas Seppälä gives a deeper insight to "I'm The One": ""I'm The One" was one of the latest compositions for new album. After writing a couple of softer songs in fall 2016 I got a new "heavy wave" and probably three latest songs I wrote were quite heavy. The song is very hectic and pushes forward like a train. There's no solo part on this song (a solo would have been quite obvious call). Instead of that I wrote an instrumental part and an extra vocal part. Last vocal part's melody and chord pattern supporting it consists of just one really long phrase... this kind of long phrasing was typical in many classical compositions. I still haven't got rid of my roots in classical music."
While singer Capri explains the story: "This is a story about very charismatic and socially intelligent people who speak with the finest words to make other people do what they want in their quest for their own pleasure. They do not care about the consequences or how to violate the feelings of others. They only think of themselves. Unfortunately the pressure in the group is generally enormous and all its members are behind the strongest individual hoping to be "the chosen one"." Link
