Dutch symphonic/gothic metal band Blackbriar released today the dark, cinematic and emotionally haunting new album – A Thousand Little Deaths. The new Blackbriar's album is out via Nuclear Blast Records and is accompanied by a suspenseful music video for "Bluebeard's Chamber".
Following a milestone year in 2024 with their first US tour and appearances at Wacken, Summer Breeze and more, the band continues to evolve their distinct sound – once again produced by Joost van den Broek, who worked with Epica, Powerwolf, Xandria, Sabaton, Blind Guardian, Ayreon, Stream Of Passion, Illumishade,... and deeply rooted in their artistic origins.
Whether you've been following Blackbriar for years or are just discovering their world of poetic darkness, now is the perfect moment to dive in. The video was done by Cinebuds, and you can watch it below. Previously released video for "A Last Sigh Of Bliss" can be found over HERE. Link

"It's a dark album. According to me, it's the darkest yet in our discography. It's also very suggestive, very introverted, less direct, and might be less friendly..." - Daniel Moilanen
"I can call our show an emotional exhibitionism. If you want to drink beer and cry, please come to our show, haha." - Nokt Aeon
"Art isn't meant to always be pretty and make us feel comfortable and good about ourselves. I'm not afraid to broach difficult emotions and to express the beautiful ones too." - Martin Saint
