Swiss heavy metal veterans Emerald present their 8th studio album “Restless Souls”, out on May 17th, 2019, via ROAR! Rock of Angels Records.
Today, the band reveals the first official video for the song “Digital Slavery”, which can be viewed below.
The video was written, directed, filmed & edited by Al Spicher (Tollmais Movies).
Special appearances by: Myriam Andrist, Marco Hayoz, Pascal Graber & Manfred Schwaller.
The Swiss heavy metal veterans Emerald present their 8th studio album “Restless Souls”. It is an evolutionary continuation of the last release “Reckoning Day” from 2017 and showcases the band as a stable unit in its best form ever.
The topics range from fantasy and horror, politics and history to social criticism. Since the whole line-up of Emerald was involved in the songwriting process right from the start, as opposed to the previous album, the songs on “Restless Souls” have a more compact, elaborated feel to them. The production was once more handled by legendary Swiss producer V.O. Pulver, who manages to combine the warm sound of 80’s metal with the power of modern production standards.
