Die neue IN APHELION Studioscheibe „Reaperdawn“ erscheint heute und dazu gibt es, wie es sich gehört, auch ein Video. In diesem Falle zum rasenden Stück `Fields in Nadir` . Das Video hat Fronter und Gitarrist Sebastian Ramstedt selbst produziert.

Er erklärt:

“It takes the viewer away from the comforting light. In order to put the viewer in the same state as me when I wrote the song it was necessary to break some rules. In nadir everything that is beautiful turns ugly. The warmer skin tone during the performance parts symbolizes this side of death. The cold colour of the outside is purgatory. The out of focus singing with the candles symbolizes death and the other side. The video is chaotically blending visions of the past the present and the future. It’s cut with a dreamlike logic in mind.”

Lyrics:

Go!

 

Take me beyond the deceitful light

Show me the depths beneath

I see the fields of nadir as I close my eyes

Surrounded by winter’s wreath

 

How could they know what I have seen

In the dark

In the night

Far away

Those of the light that darkness demean

Can never show me the way

 

Nightfall

Nexus

 

Maybe I am weak veiled in flesh

But the dark keep my spirit embalmed

Far from the sun weightless enmeshed

In eternity’s promise of calm

 

So stay by my side lay me to rest

My breath pale as your skin

Carry my words these last of days

No sun on the sky but within

 

Nightfall

Erebus

Horizon

Nexus

 

Black light

Shine on the fields in nadir

Starless

But bright is the sky in nadir

Black light

Shine on those in nadir

Darkness

Light up the sky in nadir

 

Nadir

Go!

 

Black light

Starless

Black light

Darkness

 

Silence your voice

Let the light be dim

Your whispers carry my torch

The scent of your voice is my guide in the night

That shadows the sun that scorch

 

The deeds I have done

The words I have said

Might echo forever and long

But not where I go

They won’t reach what is dead

No matter how loud or how strong

 

Nightfall

Erebus

Horizon

Nexus

 

Black light

Shine on the fields in nadir

Starless

But bright is the sky in nadir

Black light

Shine on those in nadir

Darkness

Light up the sky in nadir

 

Black light

Shine on the fields in nadir

Starless

But bright is the sky in nadir

Black light

Shine on those in nadir

Darkness

Light up the sky in nadir
