NEWS: Genus Ordinis Dei return to the dawn of Mankind…

A fourth studio album “The Beginning” from Symphonic Death Metal band Genus Ordinis Dei is set scheduled to be released on 8th December via Eclipse Records and will be preceded by four cinematic music videos. “Changing Star” is the first of those, introducing a Brother and a Sister character at the dawn of mankind, navigating a beautiful, brutal wilderness scarred with cannibalism and savagery.

The band comment: “We decided to shoot the video of this song after listening to the beautiful melody of the track‘s chorus and the great feeling of travel that the portamento of the piece gives you. We were looking for a song that perfectly represented the first episode of the series and Changing Star was perfect” says lead vocalist and guitarist Nick K.

Guitarist & producer Tommy Monticelli continues, “The video was shot in many locations and traveling with the team for all these kilometers was a real adventure. In particular, shooting the cannibalism scene was a mix of emotions and strong sensations. We literally doused the whole mountain with fake blood, still wondering how the local community, once they got there, didn’t start chasing a serial killer. Ha ha ha! Then the experience on the Pordoi Pass at 3000 meters, shooting half-naked scenes in this lunar landscape was like living an absurd dream. Luckily for us we found mild and sunny days, otherwise we would have suffered the pains of hell from the cold. Providence kisses the bold!”
