Polish progressive metallers NEWBREED release their self-titled third album via Metal Mind Productions today (June 20th) in Europe (the album is out on August 9th in North America). The band's brand new video, which was shot for the song 'How It Was To Be', has also its premiere today. Check it out below:

The band shot the video practically by themselves. The production and camera was handled by Stanislaw Wolonciej, NeWBReeD's drummer and the band leader's brother, with the help of Jarek Gacek and his colleague cameraman Szymon Twardak. It was shot at a local club Rudeboy. Tomasz Wolonciej explains: "We wanted it to be clear and simple, but also dynamic - the kind of a video that would just show us playing, emphasize the song itself and show how we express ourselves live. That's why there's a lot of slow motion and some chaotic movement. The song itself is very diverse - it features a lot of elements which are further elaborated on the rest of the album. There are heavy rhythmical guitars as well as some lighter passages, flavored with electronica and trip hop... There are some delicate vocals as well as multi-vocal parts."

NewBreed the album features guest appearances by Tomasz Lipa Lipnicki (LIPALI, ex-ILLUSION) on vocals and Wacek Vogg Kie?tyka (DECAPITATED) on the guitar.

The band's singer and guitarist Tomasz Wo?onciej talks about the new new album: "It took us over a year to prepare the material and that's why we entitled it simply "NewBreed". Our joy is all the greater since it's going to be released by an experienced label. The album features 10 songs - heavy, rhythmical but also full of melody and space. We wanted to record something different - and I think we managed to do just that. I believe that our album constitutes a modern look on the metal music - especially the progressive kind. I believe that being "progressive" means being unpredictable, out of the ordinary...we want to be different - we always did. We hope you enjoy the material."
