To celebrate the event the band unveils the lyric video for the song “1 The Magician”.

Journey into the mind, flashes of light and darkness, hidden desires, path between the tarot cards to discover human spirituality, dreams and thirst for knowledge about life, death and emotions. The Blut project, born primary as a free artistic expression of Alessandro Schumperlin, brings original music with no limits.

The new album “Hermeneutics” is the home of the 22 Major Arcana, each song is a tarot, each of them is the manifestation of the will of each card, what it grants and determines in our existence. The two male and female voices interpret each card as a character on the varied and surprising stage that is Life.
