Messa Debuts "Fire On The Roof" Music Video
The Italian doom metal alchemists in Messa are pleased to unveil their new video for "Fire On The Roof." The track comes off the band‘s outstanding new album, "The Spin," released on April 11th through Metal Blade Records.
Messa's majestic, critically-lauded fourth full-length opus, "The Spin" takes its listeners on a breathtaking journey across the wide-open skies of their creative imagination and over a compelling landscape of moods, twists, and styles. Based in the band's eclectic, self-defined "scarlet doom" sound, The Spin rises, falls, broods, bites, comforts, and destroys, all the while resounding with both instinctive magic and obsessive, concerted hard work. After lighting up the underground with a triptych of increasingly distinctive and wondrous records – 2016's "Belfry," 2018's "Feast For Water," and 2022's "Close" – with "The Spin," Messa is audibly equipped for the proverbial big leagues.
Metal Injection accurately crowns Messa "purveyors of the catchiest doom.” Of The Spin, Decibel Magazine champions ..." a sweeping statement that draws equally from doom and goth rock, with hefty doses of classic heavy metal and jazz thrown in.” Deaf Forever concurs lauding "their strongest album to date," that, "definitively establishes Messa as one of the most exciting and creative bands of the modern era." Adds Metal Hammer Germany, "Anyone who appreciates the free-spirited combination of an exceptional voice with plenty of quiet moments and some blaring riffs will find Messa to be the perfect band."
Comments the band on their "Fire On The Roof" single; "Some have experienced forbidden and impossible love. The curse, the fear, the flames that guide you to hell. Magnetism between two humans is hard to ignore – but what gets in the way with those interactions? This song‘s a testament to trusting your own guts and vulnerability." More...
