EPHIALTES Drop ‘To The Victims of Sirens’ Music Video

Polish Blackened Death Group Ephialtes Shares brand new music video for new single To The Victims of Sirens Out now! from the band’s upcoming debut album “Melas Oneiros” out November 1st.

Produced and directed by CMS – Creative Media Solution – Filmed at the location of Fort Prusy Nysa and Moto Fort Nysa

– The song “To the Victims of Sirens” draws upon a story from Homer’s “Odyssey” – our titular protagonist, Odysseus, trying to reach home after the Trojan war and lands upon the island of Sirens. Their beautiful, mesmerizing voices lead sailors to their doom, causing them to crash their ships and drown in the process. While Odysseus commanded his crew to stuff their ears with wax as a protection and ordered them to tie him to the mast of the ship, in the song our character falls victim to the Sirens’ deceiving singing and ultimately shares the abysmal fate of men that came there before him.

Ephialtes’ debut album ‘Melas Oneiros’ out Nov 1st is an aggressive, anthem-laden Melodic Blackened Death Metal with a traditional Heavy Metal feel to it. A peculiar, explosive blend that the band itself decided to call Heavy Metal of Death.

The name of the band derives from the Ancient Greek word “ephiáltēs (ἐφιάλτης)”, meaning “nightmare”, which in turn derives from the “ephàllomai (ἐφάλλομαι)”, composed of two elements: “epí (επί)” (upon, on) plus “állomai (ἅλλομαι)” (assault, climb, uphill, jumping, jump) because, in reference to a popular belief, the nightmares were nicknamed “one who climbed over the body of the dormant”. Ephialtes. One who leaps upon. The nightmare. The history of Ephialtes started over the course of the global pandemic. During that period the band’s driving force Przemysław Tomasz Olbryt alias Quazarre (also known from Devilish Impressions, Asgaard, ex-Crionics) had been hard at work on what would later turn to be their debut album, ‘Melas Oneiros’.

LINE UP:
Przemysław Tomasz Olbryt (Quazarre) – vocal / guitar
Hubert Wawrzyniak (Stiggma) – guitar
Adam Niekrasz (Avernatus) – drums
Marek Tuskowski (Tzar) – bass
Marcus Edvardsson – synthesizers (guest studio appearance)
