Seas Of Conflict have returned with their brand new single, ‘Prometheus‘, a sequel to their modern metalcore banger, ‘Eventide‘, which you can watch here. ‘Eventide’ demonstrated an ability to weave technicality with melody and ‘Prometheus’ hits back with a relentless explosion of groove, aggression and a fiery narrative with raw emotion.
“These songs are our proudest achievements to date” tells vocalist Kody Naidoo. The music holds nothing back between the two songs, from their most melodic moment to their heaviest yet, this is Seas Of Conflict at their full potential. The two singles can be viewed as a conversation between two entities. ‘Eventide’ is an outcry of love, confessing vulnerability and affection, and ‘Prometheus’ “thunders into the dark depths of betrayal and hurt, using the story of the titular character from Greek Mythology as a metaphor,” explains Kody.
Visually, ‘Prometheus’ follows on from ‘Eventide’ with its beautifully dark content and evil undertones and was also created by notable Maori director Amber Beaton (Beastwars, Jimmy Urine, Bulletbelt) and produced by Lisa Wolf. The band wanted to collaborate with someone with vivid creativity for this project so they approached Amber with the intention of presenting the two parts using her ominous, goth-inspired flair. The narrative features characters based on Scandinavian folklore with a dark twist, the narrative revolves around a young forest-dwelling outcast who tries to escape the curse of a Grimm. Interwoven with captivating performance shots, the videos were shot in a stunning arboretum in the band’s hometown of Hamilton, NZ, in the middle of autumn.
