NEWS: Shadow of the Talisman suffer hallucinations?
A second single from “As Above, So Below” an upcoming concept album from Alternative Metal Thrash Metal crew Shadow of the Talisman has premiered in “What Is Real?“. Following the global lyrical theme “we reap what we sow” it once again pushes the bands dynamic sonic approach, something which endeared them to Eclipse Records. Produced, recorded and mixed by Mark Stewart (Antighost, Final Confession, Possum Belly) at Raydon Studio the record drops on 21st February…
Drummer Kyle Williams comments: “Out of all our songs, this really is one of the most powerful we have, with its thought-provoking lyrics, themes, and musical prowess that we want to show off. From the decaying building to the defeated performance from our main character, we really feel this video has captured the essence of the song and its tone. With a limited budget, small timeframe and a challenging environment to record in, we are proud of what our video turned out to be. We know that people are going to connect with the visuals in the video.”
Vocalist & Director Mike Smith adds: “This song is about the negative thoughts that run through someone’s mind who is struggling to cope with life’s difficulties and trials. Eventually you either become numb or delusional to what is going on in your life. Our main character The Outlaw (who was portrayed by Brandon Stutzman) is meant to be your guide through these negative emotions. What makes this music video special to us is that it was written, produced, and edited by the members in the band. Everyone had a part to play to bring this production to life. We cannot wait to show this music video and song off to the world, and it will leave you asking, What is Real?”
