THRESHOLD Debut “Small Dark Lines” Music Video
August 16, 2017, 7 years ago
British progressive icons, Threshold, will release their new album, Legends Of The Shires, via Nuclear Blast on September 8th. In anticipation of the new release, the band have premiered their new video for “Small Dark Lines”.
The video was directed by Sitcom Soldiers LTD, who developed a powerful narrative involving people from varying backgrounds marking their bodies with paint to symbolize their regrets in life. Water then cascades over them to wash away the lines, as if wiping the slate clean.
Legends Of The Shires will be the band's eleventh studio album and their first ever double album; it also features Glynn Morgan back on vocal duties for the first time since 1996.
The album artwork was created by Russian artist Elena Dudina. Speaking about the artwork Richard West says, “I love it when a cover tells you what sort of record you're buying. This one really shouts "progressive" and reminds me of some of the classic prog albums from the 20th century.”
