Israeli prog metal quintet Soul Enema has released a new apocalyptic video clip for ‘Spymania’. The track is taken from the new album “Of Clans and Clones and Clowns”, which is released on June 23.
The band states: Please meet it with loud, unhuman screams and insane dances!!!
But first, let’s make a little sense: as everyone already knows, we live in a very dangerous age. As it turns out, the evil reptilians from planet Nibiru came down to Earth to control our body and mind, and they are very close to obtaining the key to Universal Knowledge, which is stored inside the brain of Soul Enema member [censored]. It’s only a matter of cutting the head, and downloading that info with a special chip. [spoiler]The super-human powers of Batman and Chuck Norris and other heavyweight geopolitical giants stand in their way, but as it turns out, only something related to the world of music will be able to save the human race.[/spoiler] What is it? Watch out till the end, and share it with a world, for the truth to be finally known!
“Of Clans and Clones and Clowns” is released on June 23. The colorful and diverse 73-minute work features guest appearances from Arjen Lucassen (Ayreon) and Yossi Sassi (ex-Orphaned Land), with a mix by Jens Bogren (Opeth, Devin Townsend). Here we used many paintings by Вася Ложкин, a brilliant modern artist who is a big phenomenon in Russia but is still virtually unknown in the Western World. Amusingly, the lyrics for this song were written way back in 2006, maybe even earlier, and feature a kind of goofy, paranoid mock story about someone being mysteriously thrown down from the roof of the Empire State Building. On the way down that person sees too many things that you’re not allowed to see – so many, in fact, that this person gets violently murdered, even before hitting the ground naturally. Fast-forward to the year 2015, and guess what – suddenly we have a completely real conspiracy scandal involving the same Empire State Building during a big ecology event [now we are serious, google it]. There were many claims that images of Kali or Satan were projected during the event on the building’s windows as part of a mystic apocalyptic ritual!
