Having performed a first live show with returning founding member and guitarist Anders Björler this past weekend at UK's Damnation Festival, Swedish melodic death metal pioneers At The Gates will continue to promote their latest studio album, The Nightmare Of Being, with a comprehensive tour across Europe alongside In Flames, Imminence and Orbit Culture starting later this week.
In order to accentuate the beginning of this massive tour, At The Gates are launching two very special video clips. Originally featured on the bonus disc edition of The Nightmare Of Being, these two deep cuts from the early At The Gates years were performed live in Tilburg, The Netherlands at Roadburn Festival in 2019, and the band's longtime videography partner Costin Chioreanu / Twilight 13 Media created both an atmospheric performance clip for "The Burning Darkness (Live at Roadburn)" as well as an outstanding abstract clip for "The Scar (Live at Roadburn)".
At The Gates vocalist Tomas Lindberg Redant checked in with the following comment about the upcoming tour and the videos: "We are super excited to finally be able to go on a European tour supporting our latest album, 'The Nightmare Of Being'. Adding to the excitement is of course the fact that founding guitar player Anders Björler is back in the fold. With the fantastic reception we got at Damnation Festival last weekend, it feels like a really great time to be in At The Gates.
These two videos were recorded live during our Roadburn Festival performance, as part of my curation, a couple of years back. 'The Burning Darkness' is one of the cornerstones in our career for me personally. And having Costin's great video art as a backdrop for that song was just amazing...Very happy with how this came out! For 'The Scar', also a personal favourite from our early career, Costin has shot a captivating video that really catches the vibe of the track. Here you can also hear the fantastic Yo Quail Quartet playing together with us!"
