Earlier this month the Athens, Georgia-based melodic metal band Theocracy released the music video for the track Hide in the Fairytale , but unfortunately there were some youtube/sync issues with the first version of the video. Finally those issues are taken care of, the new version of the video can be seen below.
The track comes off the bands latest album As The World Bleeds. The video was recorded in Orlando, FL under the talented eye of producer Dan Drescher.
As The World Bleeds was released in Europe on November 25th through Ulterium Records and in North America on November 21st through Nightmare Records.
As The World Bleeds debuted at #40 in the Billboard Heatseekers Chart during the first week of release.
Theocracy‘s critically acclaimed album As The World Bleeds was released on November 21st 2011 in North America through Nightmare Records and on November 25th in Europe through Ulterium Records. The album is also available as a double gatefold vinyl edition, strictly limited to 500 copies worldwide.
As The World Bleeds debuted at #40 in the Billboard Heatseekers Chart during the first week of release.
Have a look below for a small sample of what the journalists are saying about their journey through the new album:
“The bottom line is that is refreshing to have these guys back with a powerful new record, full of bombastic hooks and melodies. The most complete album to date and full of unforgettable tracks.” My Global Mind Webzine / Denys
“As the World Bleeds” is an album that, just like its predecessors, is very impressive. Or to keep it within the frame of reference of the band: heavenly!” Lords of Metal / Patrick
“This is an absolute must have for every metal fan. The best album produced so far by Theocracy and they proved themselves again to be at the very top in the Power Metal Universe”. The Metal Resource / Arjan
“For the third release Smith has surrounded himself for the first time with a full band, and the difference is noticeable. One word: solos! The lead guitar work of Val Allen Wood adds a healthy dose of shredding madness to the recipe and the guitar work in general is the star of the album. Not to say Smith himself isn’t on excellent form here, the man delivers his best vocal performance to date.” Black Wind Metal
