November 21, 2013, 10 years ago
QUEENSRŸCHE will be doing another 'live chat' via YouNow this Saturday, November 23rd at 11:30 A.M. PST. After the chat, they will be premiering their new video 'Ad Lucem' to all those joining in.
The tracks, 'Spore', 'Midnight Lullaby' and 'A World Without' provide the score to the 10-plus minute mini-movie that is Queensrÿche: Ad Lucem. "We decided to take a different approach with this video," comments vocalist Todd La Torre. "It’s a conceptual music video that invites the audience to scratch beneath the surface a bit, rather than the usual 'chewed food' that so many are used to being fed. We really wanted to deviate from a performance type of video so the music and story-line could be the main focus."
La Torre also adds, "The overall theme of the song 'Spore' is one that deals with personal demons, relationship struggles, career pressures, personal/professional morals and ethical dilemmas. These are issues we all face on some level and the video touches upon them all. 'Midnight Lullaby'/'A World Without' deals with the loss of a mother during childbirth, leaving a father as a single parent and struggling to move forward through the turmoil. The end result is a roller coaster of emotion in an effort to find a healthy resolve. Given our history, we feel that this multifaceted conceptual video, along with a great cast of actors to suit, will really resonate with our fans."
Remaining dates on Queensrÿche's 2013 tour schedule are as follows:
December
13 - Reno Event Center - Reno, NV14 - Marquee Theater - Tempe, AZ
