Nightrage - Persevere Through Adversity (Official Music Video)
Nightrage is back once again, with their third single “Persevere Through Adversity“, taken from one of their best albums in their 23 years of existence.
“Remains Of A Dead World” is the 10th album of the band and this time the band returned to where everything had started, since Nightrage was born in Greece in 2000.
With the great help of their past bandmate and now producer, sound engineer, Fotis Benardo (Rotting Christ, Septicflesh, Sakis Tolis, Nightfall, On Thorns I lay, Suicidal Angels) at his Devasoundz studio in Athens Greece, and with his great producing skills, “Remains Of A Dead World” is a mixture of all the things that makes Nightrage a beast of integrity, they prove to be one of the last remaining true masters of the melodic death metal genre, fully unstoppable riffing, and great hooks with bigger than life guitar melodies with brutal vocals that represents the honesty and pure musical delivery, that comes straight from the heart.
The album has been mastered by a great friend of the band George Nerantzis (Abbath, Dark Funeral, Pain Of Salvation, Sakis Tolis) and his great skills gave the album a huge sound with clarity, power and analog flavor.
About the new single they had this to say:
Magnus; “When we write songs for an album, we want to have variation in tempo and dynamics but also in keys so that it is not only songs that go in E, or in our case C that we tune down to. Persevere is in Bb, so we dropped two steps down from C, which means that the song has a slightly different feel to how Nightrage usually sounds. I think it turned out very well. Heavy as hell!“
George; “Persevere Through Adversity’ is one of my favorite songs in the album. It’s a really diverse song with many dark, brutal, aggressive, and at the same time melodic elements. It’s new and fresh, but always with the Nightrage signature sound. This is not one of our typical songs, and I am sure that it will be a great surprise. The song talks about the fact that we never stop learning and becoming better. Learning from our life experiences, fixing mistakes that we have done in the past and have harmed us. This life is a great journey to always improving, and never ever letting down yourself. Being always an eternal student, having your eyes open and listening. Enjoy!“
Lyrics:
Carrying the flags of my destiny,
mourning the sunset of our eerie past,
Like a disease, Im Petrified,
Intensifies, at the brink of disclosure.
Apathy of my blackened spirit
In this harsh reality
The hardships of our youth,
Dark glass of our lifetime
Persevere, keeping going
Values tormented and glorified
Trying to right the wrong
Diminishing the truth
Wounding the innocence
Mending the scars of immunity
Drenched into darkness and insanity
Leaving behind frail deeds up tied
Writing the script of my consequence
Apathy of my blackened spirit
In this harsh reality
Lies and deceit, feeding you
Blackened past, blackened spirits
The hardships of our youth,
Dark glass of our lifetime
Persevere, keeping going
Values tormented and glorified
Trying to right the wrong
Diminishing the truth
Wounding the innocence
The hardships of our youth,
Dark glass of our lifetime
Persevere, keeping going
Values dead and glorified
