STRATOVARIUS Drop Official Music Video For "Broken"

Last week, Stratovarius released Survive, their first album in seven years. Today, the band follows with a dystopian video for "Broken." Watch it below.

It's a melodic metal song that represents a modern sound that Stratovarius has grown into. It's also a brutally honest delineation about the hubris of mankind and what it may cause. For the video, the band joined forces with award-winning Argentinian director Mariano Biasin. He created a visually stunning and powerful contrast between a world that seems intact and an apocalyptic denouement as a result of egoism, greed, and self- absorption.

"The song is about mankind, and how we obviously are far from perfect," says  Jens Johansson. "Technology can be a savior and it can be our doom. If we don't make it, what then?"
