LOTUS THRONES - New Video Premiered Online, Debut Album Out Next Friday

Philadelphia (USA) based Lotus Thrones - the solo project formed by former Wolvhammer and Across Tundras drummer Heath Rave, presents a video for “Liberate”, which features guest saxophone from Bruce Lamont. The video has premiered online just a week ahead of the release of outfit’s Lovers In Wartime debut album through Disorder Recordings next Friday.

With the “Liberate” video, Rave delves: “What does depression sound like? It’s different for everyone. Sometimes it’s quiet and even comforting. A dark, weighted blanket. Other times it’s an inglorious din boiling in your synapsis, completely overshadowing everything around you. I wanted to create an instrumental piece to simulate what it’s like to be drowning in your own head, longing for what it would like to be able to ‘save yourself’. I had spoken with Bruce before I even began composing it, I could hear him in my head for this idea and I wrote it for his performance to be the centrepiece, more of him channelling my emotions out of the backing music. I have cherished my friendship with him for years and I’m so grateful for the privilege of his presence on this. There was also no one else other than David Brenner to capture these feelings visually and eject them put into the world. This song felt truly finished after David completed the video for it. This is one of the greatest collaborations I’ve been lucky to have been a part of.”
 
Bruce Lamont offers: “When Heath asked me to collaborate, I knew it wouldn’t be disappointing. Dark and ambient to start, building into a chaotic frenzy. As we say here in Chicago, ‘real nice'.” Link
