OCTOPLOID Release "Coast Of The Drowned Sailors" Lyric Video Feat. AMORPHIS Guitarist TOMI KOIVUSAARI

Octoploid - the band founding by Olli-Pekka "Oppu" Laine (bass, keyboards, backing vocals / Amorphis, Barren Earth, Mannhai) - have released a lyric video for "Coast Of The Drowned Sailors", featuring on the debut album, Beyond The Aeons, released back in July via Reigning Phoenix Music (RPM).

A message reveals, "'Coast of the Drowned Sailors is a conscious nod to the '90s, and the only possible interpreter for it was Mister Tomi Koivusaari. The track marries the essence of original melodic death metal with elements of slide and acoustic guitar characteristic of southern rock ballads. Also featured is Jani ”Joãnitor” Muurinen, the legendary vocalist from the band Xysma, who delivers the more hopeful part of the lyrics. Overall, 'Sailors' is an unapologetically old-school melodic death metal track executed with a modern touch!"

Beyond The Aeons was crafted at E-Studio in Sipoo, Finland where Petri Majuri (Hanoi Rocks, Michael Monroe) took care of mixing the eight tracks and David Castillo (Katatonia, Leprous, Opeth) mastered the album. Orion Landau (Carcass, YOB, Russian Circles ) completed the magnificent package with dreamy artwork.
