NEWS: Red Eleven share “Blackbird”!

Having released four albums and an EP since their inception in 2009, Finnish Metal act Red Eleven went into writing mode when the Global Pandemic hit. Inverse Records have announced that album number five is on the way with first single “Blackbird“, which introduced a refreshed sound. Heavier, Metal-flavored with a nod towards modern Progressive Metal sound with lyrics which reference a dark connection to the afterlife, it’s a dark new day.

The music video for the “Blackbird” single was crafted again in cooperation with Red Eleven’s trusted director Anssi Korhonen. Korhonen describes the video making process: “The original plan for the video was quite different from the final product. For production reasons, we went back to the basics. Atmospheric, cinematic and twisted. A truly classic music video.”

“Director’s original vision for the video was a bit more ambitious but we think the end result supports the song’s story and atmosphere“, states the band’s bassist Petteri Vaalimaa. The video was shot at Vaalimaa’s home in Varkaus.
