Southampton based prog rock outfit Kepler Ten have unveiled a stunning lyric video to accompany one of their tracks 'Swallowtail', taken from their highly acclaimed debut album 'Delta-v' which is out now via White Star Records.
"An articulate musical statement, an auspicious debut"- PROG
Steve Hales (Drummer) says this about the song:
"Swallowtail is the story of a man struggling to deal with the loss of his love in a tragic plane crash. Almost thirty years on he is living alone in the countryside, obsessed with collecting swallowtail butterflies. His damaged mind is conflicted, two sides still fighting to come to terms with his grief. Pursuing one of the fragile creatures he sees it as a purity, a freedom, an escape from his despair. However once he has it gently trapped he changes. In an instant the anger and darkness overwhelm him. The swallowtail is her, his lost love and he will never let her fly from him again.
Having seen their previous work we were excited to have Crystal Spotlight produce this lyric video for us. Miles (Skarin) immediately understood the whole light/dark aspect that we were after and we think the result is mesmerising."
