Ahead of the release of their brand new album, Odyssey, Swedish heavy rockers, HORISONT, have today premiered a new video for the track Bad News via Metal Hammer.
Watch the video for Bad News on the Metal Hammer website here.
The band commented:
"Someone is watching from beyond the atmosphere; somewhere in a dark corner of the solar system they conduct their vicious experiments. See and hear the thrilling conclusion in Horisont's brand new music video Bad News! Hear more amazing adventures on the forthcoming space saga Odyssey!"
The space-based video was filmed and directed by Magnus Delborg, with filming also by Christian Hillén; it was shot in the band's hometown of Gothenburg.
Odyssey was recorded in Studio Kust in Gothenburg with producer by Henrik Magnusson. Artwork by Henrik Jacobsen harks back to both classic sci-fi paperbacks and prime prog rock albums of the 70s. This quintet's rock trip might be retro but their songwriting is timeless; a good melody lives forever and HORISONT have songs in abundance. New album Odyssey is exactly as its title suggests: an epic journey into the known. A sonic trip. A mighty voyage of sound.
Bassist, Magnus Delborg, explains the concept behind the album: "Most of the songs are in some way connected to the bigger theme, so ' yes - it is a concept album. It concerns a supreme race of mysterious being who experiment with the creation of life and start to populate planets around the universe. And this is the story of one of those planets..."
