SAMAEL release "Rain" video off 'Passage Live'
19-02-2024
Just in time for the release of their upcoming live album, Passage – Live, SAMAEL strike with a live version of their dynamic anthem, “Rain”, together with an energetic lyric video. Passage – Live drops via Napalm Records. The song is the groundbreaking album ‘Passage’ original opening track, as it is again on the live performance release.
Watch the live lyric for “Rain” below.
With “Rain”, SAMAEL brings their aggressive and brutally blackened soundscapes to a higher level. Underlined by remarkable keyboards and sweeping rawness, the lyric video captures the contagious energy that the band demonstrates throughout the roaring track.
Recorded during a sold-out concert in Krakow on the last day of the European leg of their “Passage 25th Anniversary Tour”, Passage – Live shines as a fully live take on the band’s highly influential and iconic 1996 album. The album gets a makeover and adds a further new touch and elements to the album and sound.
Vorph on “Rain”:
“The image of the tree is omnipresent in the lyrics of ‘Rain’, used as a metaphor for the changes that make us grow bigger, deeper, higher and stronger as individuals.”
Watch the previously released lyric video voor ‘Moonskin’ and the official live video, both off ‘Passage Live’, below.
