Belarusian dark post-metal unit Dymna Lotva has unveiled a highly symbolic video for the second released single, "Death Kisses Your Eyes" (Смерць Цалуе Ў Вочы), from its forthcoming album, The Land Under The Black Wings: Blood (Зямля Пад Чорнымі Крыламі: Кроў), scheduled for release on the 4 August through recently signed with Prophecy Productions.
Dymna Lotva's vocalist Katsiaryna "Nokt Aeon" Mankevich on "Death Kisses Your Eyes": "This song is dedicated to the memory of the Belarusian protest activist Roman Bondarenko, who was killed by the Lukashenka regime. Roman's last words were a message in the neighbours' chat, 'I'm going out'. When unknown people arrived in his yard and began to destroy protest art and national symbols which were jointly created by the residents of nearby houses, he could not stand aside. When Roman Bondarenko left the house, he was brutally beaten and abducted by unidentified men wearing black clothes and masks. Roman died from his injuries the next day, on November 12, 2020. On the same day, the first demo of this song was mixed. The song's lyrics which are carrying the words 'those who wear midnight will take you away' and 'let's go' were too reminiscent of his story. The video clip was created by the photo artist Jay Flokker. It was not originally conceived to be shown alongside this song, but we felt it to be very appropriate as it is a strong reminder of the struggle of the people of Belarus and their national symbol, our flag with its white, red, and white stripes".
