Saber Tiger have released an official music video for the new track “Permanent Rage”.
The video was directed by Takayuki Yamada, and it was filmed primarily on their recent Baltic Tour.
The new video features the band both on stage and backstage at the various venues they played.
Watch the video for “Permanent Rage” below.
Legendary Japanese metal band Saber Tiger release their first new studio album in three years with the phenomenal “Obscure Diversity”, an album which proves that the band are at the absolute peak of their powers, moving ever forward and proving true talent and fire knows no age.
“Obscure Diversity” shows a band that has no intention of slowing down more than three and a half decades after their genesis. If anything, their trademark blend of classy melodicism and fierce intensity is in better balance than ever.
Tracks like speed monsters “The Crowbar Case” and “Permanent Rage” feature every aspect that fans have come to expect from Saber Tiger; from the whirlwind guitar work of Akihito Kinoshita and Yasuharu Tanaka to Takenori Shimoyama’s passionate vocals and the intricate rhythms of drummer Yasuhiro Mizuno and bassist hibiki. “Beat of the War Drums” is heavy and modern, while more atmospheric tracks like “The Shade of Holy Light” and “The Forever Throne” show a surprisingly introspective side of the band without sacrificing any of the band’s renowned heaviness. “Distant Signals”, hibiki’s first songwriting contribution to Saber Tiger’s body of work, even manages to take the band to surprisingly progressive territories. Saber Tiger pulls all of these musical directions off with equal class and conviction, truly accounting for the diversity that they have promised in the album’s title.
The cover artwork was created by Hayato Nove. Concept by Fubito Endo.
The album was mixed and mastered by Simone Mularoni, guitarist of Italian progressive power metal band DGM and owner of the Domination Studio in San Marino.
“Obscure Diversity” was released on October 10th, 2018, via Sliptrick Records.
