Montreal’s FALL OF STASIS Unleash Music Video For “The Chronophagist” Feat. VIKY BOYER
Ahead of the release of their one-year anniversary debut album The Chronophagist, Montreal’s Fall Of Stasis are sharing with fans a new music video for the album’s closing title track, featuring guest vocals by Viky Boyer (voice actor for The Monster Factory, Ariel ).
“This is the final song on the album and tells the story of a deity who has the power to steal time from mortal beings. The song begins with a slightly modified version of Wilted Forests’ intro, followed by a heavy riff and an epic, vocally charged chorus. The final chorus is punctuated by an eclectic and odd trash riff, followed by a black metal section. The song ends with an epic riff and a fading, soaring guitar solo,” the band adds.
Produced by Chris Donaldson (Cryptopsy), The Chronophagist, released on February 25th, 2022, received critical acclaim from the metal media and built a strong local following, leading them to announce release in July 2022 for Avatar and Light The to open gate. With a wide arrangement of influences, a high level of precision and dedication, the band pride themselves on creating a relentless, fast, aggressive yet melodic and symphonic opus. Ranging from black to symphonic metal, plus folk interludes, along with proggy riffs, the band weaves a brutal yet unpredictable melodic composition that unabashedly captures the listener’s attention from start to finish.
“We wanted to bring something fresh to the metal scene with our first album. Each song has been carefully written and fine tuned to hold the listener’s attention. We wanted the album to showcase each member’s musical influences without compromising the quality of our music. Overall, each song blends in well with the next, yet they are different enough to keep the listener engaged for the duration of the album. We asked Christian Donaldson to record, mix and master our album as he is by far one of the most respected and recognized metal producers in the province. Again, we didn’t want to cut corners and made sure to work with someone who would do our music justice. Lyrically, the album features fictional storytelling from beginning to end, although the lyrics often symbolize modern day social issues along with some of the band members’ personal experiences,” the band adds.
