DARK FORTRESS - 'Ylem' Video Now Available
October 7, 2010, 13 years ago
Finally, the long-awaited video for the title track of DARK FORTRESS’ current album, Ylem, is released. Check out the 'Ylem' video below.
The clip was shot in the Dechenhoehle, a natural flowstone cave that offered the perfect set for the story of 'Ylem'.
Morean (vocals) states: “The title track of our last album is a spell summoning the death of the universe in an accelerated "big crunch". The end of all living matter in the universe is inevitable, and in this invocation the sorcerer is a witness to this inevitable cosmic disaster. The clip is set in an atmosphere of desertion, with no more signs of civilisation, after the exponentially growing sun has scorched away all traces of life. As a last refuge, going underground offers the only shelter that is left, where the protagonist willingly surrenders to destruction and embraces his own end in a vision evoking both the distant past and distant future of our planet."
