FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

HUBRIS UNVEIL NIGHTMARISH ANIMATED LYRIC VIDEO FOR “LIGHTLESS LANTERN” FROM NEW ALBUM ACTS OF SEDITION

Buffalo, NY — Underground black metal force Hubris have released a brand new animated lyric video for “Lightless Lantern,” taken from their recently unleashed full-length Acts of Sedition , out now worldwide.

The track comes from what is already being called a modern underground statement piece, a relentless 51-plus minute barrage of extreme black metal fury that continues to push Hubris further into the upper ranks of American USBM intensity. Drawing comparisons to the uncompromising styles of Gorgoroth , 1349 , and Tsjuder , the band’s sound remains razor sharp, violent, and unfiltered.

“Lightless Lantern” is not just a lyric video in the traditional sense. It is a fully realized animated short film created by Daniel Oakes, an industry veteran known for his work on the long running animated series Archer . Built through months of collaboration between Oakes and Hubris songwriter Hellskald, the result is a cinematic descent into dystopian chaos that mirrors the song’s lyrical themes.

The visual narrative plunges into a Nietzschean collapse of order, where humanity is stripped of illusion and replaced by something far more primal. As civilization burns under the weight of its own delusions, the imagery evolves into a direct visual extension of the Acts of Sedition cover art by Santiago Jamarillo of Triple Seis Design.

Musically and visually, “Lightless Lantern” reinforces the central concept of the album: collapse, rebellion, and rebirth through destruction.
