NEBELKRÄHE premiere new video at NoCleanSinging.com - features KANONENFIEBER member
Tuesday September 26 2023, 6:40 PM
Today, German black metallers Nebelkrähe premiere the new video "Nielandsmann" at heavily trafficked web-portal NoCleanSinging.com . The track is the second to be revealed from the band's forthcoming third album, ephemer, set for international release on October 27th via Crawling Chaos Records. The song and accompanying video features Kanonenfieber singer Noise.
"The lyrics for 'Nielandsmann' were written in 2015," explains Nebelkrähe guitarist Morg. "Borders and the immense importance of the coincidence on which side of a border one was born were brought home to all of us at that time in the context of the refugee crisis. The fact that the lyrics are more topical than ever today due to an imperialist warmonger in a completely different context was, of course, not foreseeable - but shows, once again, that mankind does not learn."
Continuing, Morg says, "The song was never meant to be 'war black metal' - on the contrary. I was fascinated by the concept of the 'border,' and how quickly this so clearly defined, hard concept loses any meaning as soon as there is no one left to draw such a border. How purely hypothetical this whole construct is, on which patriotism is based - that is the core message of 'Nielandsmann.'"
For the accompanying video, Nebelkrähe entered into a cooperation with Paralightworx. In addition to scenes filmed specifically for the music video, the clip is supplemented in the "Retrospectives" with footage from the reenactment video group's short film 1916.
Morg comments: "To produce scenes with a single protagonist was complex, but was within the scope of what we could do - but to recreate war in detail is something else again. The fact that Paralightworx, as experts in this field, provided us with their movie made our clip in this form possible in the first place. A big thank you to this crew and maximum respect for the meticulousness and professionalism with which these guys produce their films."
