KORPIKLAANI release video for new track ‘Jägermeister’, NIGHTWISH unleash live video for ‘Élan’, SYLOSIS return with new album “Cycle Of Suffering”

 

 

Finnish Folk Metal Superstars KORPIKLAANI who are currently preparing for two Russian shows with TROLLFEST later this month, are pleased to announce that they will be returning to EU/UK shores in spring 2020 for a string of headline shows, as part of their ongoing »Land Of A Thousand Drinks« world tour! Support on the UK dates will come from Nuclear Blast label mates BURNING WITCHES. All dates can be found below!

In celebration of this news, KORPIKLAANI have today released a killer video for their new track ‘Jägermeister,’ shot at their recent New York show. The video was directed by Vicente Cordero, with production by Industrialism Films. ‘Jägermeister’ will be available to purchase as a digital single on December 13, 2019.

Frontman Jonne commented, “As our recent North American tour began, we were discussing making a new video and Jyrki (THE 69 EYES) recommended Vicente and he was a perfect fit. At the time we did not even know what song to use and then we remembered we never released ‘Jägermeister’ as this was recorded during the »Manala« sessions. We contacted Vicente and found out that he had free time the day we had our last show in New York. He flew out to NY, met us at the PlayStation Theater and then filmed around Times Square, backstage and during the show. Now it is time for your favourite medicine, perfect to warm up the cold winter days and get you in that party mood! Come and drink with us!”

 

Nightwish

The announcement also delivers a first look at the band, since their 3-year hiatus, with the launch of the brand-new video, ‘I Sever’; available everywhere now. If that wasn’t enough, SYLOSIS take to the stage for the first time in 4 years to headline Islington Assembly Hall in London, England on 13th February – Josh promises that this will be the biggest and baddest SYLOSIS live show to date!

Josh comments, “After 3 long years, SYLOSIS are back! I want to thank all of our fans for their patience and support over these last few years. »Cycle Of Suffering« is dedicated to them. With this new chapter, we close another; I’d like to thank Carl Parnell for his time in SYLOSIS. Many great memories made with him and I wish him the best in his career. Now we welcome Conor Marshall to SYLOSIS! Another man in another band (CONJURER) – Conor is an amazing player and compliments what we do really well. A warm welcome planned for 13th February where we play our first show in over 4 years! We’re excited and focussed – see you in 2020!”
