Sylosis - Release New Video


Here is your opportunity to listen to another new track from Sylosis. As you probably already know, the British metallers are releasing a new album next year called Dormant Heart. Today, you can watch their new animated video for the song "Leech". Due to the nature of the video, they weren't able to premiere it on YouTube but you can watch it here on Vimeo. Possibly due to the blood and nakedness. Do watch it and tell us if you liked it.

The video was animated by Oliver Jones of Better Feeling Films in the UK. It took five hours to film the band and story footage and roughly 60 days to animate. Oliver was the only person working on the project, from shooting the live action footage to animating the entire video. The process he used is called 'rotoscoping', which involves tracing over footage, frame by frame.




Frontman Josh commented: "Leech is the second single off the new album. I would say the album is probably our heaviest to date but this song showcases a more melodic and stripped back side to what we do. It's a really dark, sinister doomy sounding song and we thought it would be cool to try something a bit different for the video and have it reflect the vibe of the music. We've always wanted to have an animated music video and it allows for a bit more creativity and makes it stand out."






Previously, the band released the song "Mercy" for streaming, which you can still enjoy here. Expect Dormant Heart to drop via Nuclear Blast Records on January 12th in the UK, January 13th in the US and January 16th in Europe.

Very cool track and that video is dark as hell. I'll add my voice to the anticipation list as it regards the new album.
