After some incredible teasers that aroused curiosity in their audience, the Curitibana band Doomsday Hymn finally releases their new work. The song called ‘Sozinho’ (Alone) brings a clip that features almost a short film with a story that catches the viewer by surprise and prepares him for future videos.
The band has revealed that the video is a small sample of a much larger story they intend to tell on their next album yet to be released.
The video can be seen below.
Doomsday Hymn was founded in late 2013 by Gil Lopes in Curitiba after a few conversations with drummer Jarlisson Jaty, who helped form the group. To complete the quintet were invited guitarists Roney Lopes and Karim Serri, along with Fernando Frogel on bass, in which they recorded the first self-titled EP. The release featured three visceral stones with excellent riffs and a weight that would become characteristic in DDH.
