Italian Death Metallers HOUR OF PENANCE have just released a pixel art music video for their new single ‘Blight And Conquer’ at this location. It was created by Bristol based artist Harry Sussams, and is based on a concept by Paolo Pieri. HOUR OF PENANCE commented on the video as follows: “We gave a lot of thought about how to do something different from anything else seen before and show you a unique video clip. Videogames have always been one of our biggest passions alongside music, and titles like Dark Souls and Bloodborne and their peculiar imagery and storytelling have been a huge source of inspiration for us: so we’ve decided to come up with a 2D/retro animation created by Harry Sussams, an amazing professional in illustration and pixel art. We worked hard together on every scene and detail to give life to a cryptic and gruesome narration tied to the themes of wealth and corruption dealt with in the lyrics of “Misotheism”, with the iconic tower of the artwork making its appearance into the video. Check it out!”. The song will appear on their upcoming new album “Misotheism”, which will be released on October 25, 2019 via Agonia Records.
