The Blacktones – The Upside Down [Official Video]
Taken from the album: The Day We Shut Down The Sun | 2017
Created by: Elena Cabitza
Italian Sludge Metal band The Blacktones have released an official video for the song The Upside Down, taken from their full length The Day We Shut Down The Sun released worldwide via Sliptrick Records towards the end of 2017.
Here’s what the band had to say about it: “After the intro, it’s the first song of the album, the true start of the journey.
It’s inspired by the Stranger Things show, but the video embraces all
the concept album, thanks to the outstanding vision and animations
created by Elena Cabitza. It’s an oniric journey in a dimension where
the Major Arcana of the concept lives, encountering them starting from V – The Pope to 0 – The Fool,
following the listening order of the album. In tarot’s card meanings,
The Fool is the beginning, travelling through all others Major Arcana.
But in our upside down world, it is not a journey to gain wisdom,
instead it’s to run away from madness”
The Blacktones – The Day We Shut Down The Sun
Formed in Cagliari, Italy on March of 2011, The Blacktones started
life as an instrumental band from an idea of Sergio Boi and Gianni
Farci. The style of the band has been influenced by the
Stoner/Grunge/Metal wave of the nineties and so on, with the addition of
poly-rhythms. The Blacktones have consciously changed things up from their previous album, and as such, the new album The Day We Shut Down The Sun contains more aggressive songs with strong guitar arrangements imbued with accessible complexity. Read more about The Day We Shut Down The Sun …here
