Finnish melancholic/atmospheric/melodic doom/death metal masters Marianas Rest have just released a deeply haunting yet marvellous new official music video for their captivating song "The Weight". The head-swinging doom induced track is cut from the band's latest full-length, Fata Morgana, released in March 2021 via Napalm Records - a must-have for fans of bands like Insomnium and My Dying Bride.
Lose yourself in this overwhelmingly evocative nine-minute epos, characterized by addicting guitar tones, a hypnotizing soundscape and the soul-gripping growls of vocalist Jaakko Mäntymaa. With incredible northern woodland scenography and spine-chilling choreography, the visually sophisticated music video for "The Weight" impressively underlines the creative vision of Marianas Rest once more.
Marianas Rest on "The Weight": "'The Weight' is a journey through pressure. A desperate try to lift the world off your shoulders and search for something better. It's ugliness with a tiny glimpse of something beautiful."
Marianas Rest's latest album, Fata Morgana, marks the final chapter of a trilogy that began when the band released their first full-length, 2016's Horror Vacui, followed by the critically acclaimed full-length Ruins (2019). The series encompasses themes of isolation, eventual mental collapse and emergence from that woeful state, respectively - however, the band invites fans to experience the concept from their own perspectives.
