Only two years after their incredibly successful latestĀ album ‘No Absolution‘, Finnish modern metalĀ squad Lost Society have come back ferociouslyĀ with the first single fromĀ their upcoming manifesto ‘If The Sky Came Down‘, set to be released onĀ September 30th via Nuclear Blast.
Front manĀ Samy Elbanna shares some insights:Ā Ā āThe upcoming album is a portrayal of how you see the world after you have come to terms with the fact that all hope has been lost. A world where all your insecurities and worst fears come to life.
Itās my story, and ‘112’Ā is where it all begins. Itās the moment you realiseĀ your life has started to unravel and you can finally be fully honest with yourself and admit: youāre not okay. Thereās something incredibly purifying and serene about letting go, and finally starting to build something new. Since writing the lyrics and chorus to this song, it was clear that this was the first song people have to hear from the album.ā
He continues:
āDuring the recording of the album, I had compiledĀ a few different music video ideas that I really wanted to do for the album – and the synopsis that I had for ‘112’ was just something we knew we HAD to do.
The AMAZINGĀ Vita PicturaĀ team immediately grabbed the idea and supercharged it, and I think together we made something absolutely magical.
The music video depicts the whole theme of the album, and in particular the feeling talked about on the track itself. Going through a period in time where you feel as though you keep waking up in the exact same time, same place and same emotion without any help. You try to mess with your own āhell loopā but you just keep falling down and finding yourself back where you started.ā
