Canadian thrashers Triskelyon have a new music video, "Endgame Euphoria", in support of their third album, Shattered Elysium unveiled this past September via Moribund Records. Check it out below.
Band founder Geoff Waye comments:
"'Endgame Euphoria' is the final music video from Shattered Elysium. The track critiques both the media's fixation on 'bad' news and the audience's morbid fascination with watching disasters unfold, often with a mix of glee and dread. Whether the tragedies are natural or man-made, they dominate the headlines and can distort perceptions. A line from the song encapsulates this sentiment: 'Braindead salivating / Fixate on tragedy / Cheerlead downfall / Revel in the anarchy.' While staying informed is important, so too is knowing when to step away and enjoy life."
Shattered Elysium runs the gamut from pure '80s thrash and speed Metal to classic power Metal, and traditional metal, and even includes some brutal death-thrashers. It attains an impressive new milestone in classic thrash metal, with far-reaching appeal across all heavy metal sub-genres. “Shattered Elysium” truly resurrects the glory days of the 1980s, while maintaining a fresh and modern sound!
In keeping with Triskelyon's tradition of closing their albums with an iconic cover, this release delivers a thunderous metal rendition of Duran Duran's mega-hit “Hungry Like the Wolf.” This powerful transformation is destined to become a radio sensation and ignite a storm of social media buzz!
The album features a thrilling list of guest musicians that includes the vocal talents of Amanda Kiernan (Into Eternity, The Order of Chaos), Eric Forrest (E-Force, ex-VoiVod), Tiina Teal (Détente), Amanda Jackman (Category VI), Armin Kamal (Infrared), Dale Drew (Sea Dogs), Fíochmhar (Artach), and Des Mason & Pete Healey. Traditional yet intricate thrash drum duties are also exceptionally executed by Raul Marques (Burning Torment), while Dwayne Pike, Keith Jackman (Category VI), Rick White, and Darrin Pope were conscripted on bass.
