While Katatonia haven't released a new album in a few years, they have been busy with other releases including EPs, compilations, acoustic releases and DVDs. Now the Swedish masters of melancholy will release a new concert film, Sanctitude, and today you get to watch the live video for "Day" which is a beautiful song you might know from one of the band's standout records, Brave Murder Day. Sanctitude will be released on March 30th in the UK and the rest of the world, March 31st in the USA and Canada, and April 3rd in Germany. Until then, enjoy this version of the haunting "Day" song.

Anders Nyström said of this track: "Day... something you wake up to, or at least have to pull through, over and over. Most of them you forget about, but a couple you maybe look back upon and wish to relive again. Unfortunately in reality, I'm afraid that's not possible, at least not until Apple buys NASA and releases a new version of their Time Capsule backup machine and send people into the cloud and back into history to fetch an older version of their lives, but luckily for us, there's a current control of our music that doesn't need time travel.

"We have always felt that if there's a need, we're entitled to the freedom to give our old songs a makeover in the now rather than the never. So, in the making of Sanctitude there was one song in particular that meant a great deal to us. In fact, it was our first song ever to feature entirely clean vocals accompanied by clean guitars and it was written and released right in the peak of our death metal years. The song stood out, but isolated itself into oblivion in the climate of heavier music. Therefore we wanted this song to get a second chance, to be re-discovered. Even 20 years later when performing it live for the first time, it appears the parks are still grey and look the same..."
