Eluveitie release music video for first single “Ategnatos”

We all wade through archetypes. We all are archetypes. Distant echoes of a life both primeval and noble. To embrace these archetypes, to accept them not only as a part of life but as life itself is what some may call enlightenment, some peace of mind.

Eluveitie call it “Ategnatos”. And by using their longest gap between two Metal albums to gather momentum, they just forged their strongest album around it.
 
“Ategnatos” will be release on April 5th, 2019, via Nuclear Blast.

Each part of this epic song outdoes the previous one on a musical journey that blends the band's heaviest side together with hurdy-gurdy, flute, grand piano and a Hammond organ, culminating in a grand finale that will leave the sonic traveller speechless.
