November 1, 2012, 12 years ago
Portuguese extreme progressive metallers MALEVOLENCE will release the new video for the track ‘Slithering’ on November 2nd.
The video was directed by David Barros of 4TheRecords.
Carlos commented on the new video: “‘Slithering’ was the first single extracted from our impending new album. Decibel Magazine kindly assisted us to make the premiere of the audio episode some weeks ago, helping us in the process to show the song writing diversity on antithetical. Now we are moving forward and presenting the visual production of our first (ever) music video interrelated with the same song. To achieve that we worked with 4TheRecords, a young company producing mainly short films and commercials. ‘Slithering’ is their boldest achievement to date and we are truly pleased with the visual quality of our first cooperation with this entity. The support of 4TheRecords was central and decisive to attain the professional final results.”
‘Slithering’, written by guitarist/vocalist Carlos Cariano, is taken from the band’s upcoming third album Antithetical, which will be released in 2013.
A teaser for the new album can be seen below:
Antithetical was written and produced by Carlos Cariano, recorded by Paulo Pereira at 20m2sea Studio (Portugal), mixed and mastered at Woodshed Studio (Germany) by V. Santura (TRIPTYKON, OBSCURA, PESTILENCE).
According to a press release: “The main theme of Antithetical illustrates a razor-sharp concept inspired from Ancient Greek Etymology (1580s, from Gk. Antithetikos) that reflects the diametrical opposition to a number of propositions consisting in the revelation of a divergent thought. Pertaining to Antithetical, the Anti (against) + Thesis (position), as a figure of speech (mainly used by the authors of the Baroque period; style of the epoch known as the art of conflict) acknowledge opposition towards the relative thesis expressed.”
