Omnium Gatherum Drops New Visualizer Video "Walking Ghost Phase"
As a last single before their new album, "May The Bridges We Burn Light The Way," drops November 7th Finnish melodic death metal stalwarts Omnium Gatherum are releasing the 80s infused "Walking Ghost Phase" that comes with a visualizer video which can be watched below.
Jukka Pelkonen (vocals) about the song: "'Walking Ghost Phase' is about addiction in its many forms. It is about dullness defeating passion yet the addiction creating a fixation. It is a zombie-like state where one is forced to go through the destructive pattern repeatedly. Self-deception is one of the key topics in this song. How addiction lures one into thinking there is nothing wrong and then it consumes you. The title is a real term used when the Chernobyl nuclear power plant disaster happened in the 80's. There were workers exposed to heavy radiation who obviously got sick from it. After a while they seemed to be cured, but that was only a deception. Soon afterwards they just collapsed and passed away. That is why I linked the ’Walking Ghost Phase‘-state to the idea of addiction."
Markus Vanhala (guitars) further comments: "Here‘s the third OG single down the road - called 'Walking Ghost Phase.' This one represents the simpler, straight-forward banger side of the upcoming album, it is getting your heads banging and fists pumping. Really looking forward to playing this one live as it has a feel of an upcoming classic live anthem - luckily we have A LOT of shows coming up. Also fear not, there‘s also gonna be some a bit more proggy or advanced stuff on the album. May the bridges we burn light the way!"
