Dutch epic death/black metallers Bleeding Gods will release their upcoming concept album Dodekathlon on January 12th, 2018 via Nuclear Blast.
Today, the band unveils the first part of three track-by-track trailers. The guitarist Ramon Ploeg describe the background stories and Greek myths behind the first four album songs.
Track by track video :
The album was recorded at Pitch Note Productions and Hal 5 Studio; mixed and mastered at Soundlodge Studio. The cover artwork (see below) was created by Dimitris Tzortzis from Immensa Artis.
Main man and guitarist Ramon Ploeg comments the song and the video, directed by Sebastiaan Spijker:
“We are really proud to launch our first single ‘From Feast To Beast’ from the new album »Dodekathlon« upon you! The track is about catching the Erymanthian Boar and bring it back alive to King Eurystheus. This was Hercules’ 4th labour of the series of 12 episodes concerning his penance for slaying his son, daughter and wife Megara. Sebastiaan did an awesome job directing the video, which only shows some band shots. It is a real joy to work with him and he has a good and fast communication, which we like. We hope you will enjoy the video as much as we do!”
