Whilst it has become fairly standard these for bands to release promo videos that feature excerpts of tracks from their upcoming releases, Norwegian Black Metallers the 3RD ATTEMPT have approached the whole thing in a slightly different way. Not only does the video give fans an insight into the sound of the album, but it also features a voice-over by frontman and lyricist Ødemark himself, describing to fans the concept behind each track.
The video, produced by Ødemark, and featuring snippets of the first four tracks from "Egocidal Path", will be the first of two, with the second one, featuring the remainder of the tracks, appearing before the December 1st release of the album on Dark Essence Records.
"With "Egocidal Path" we take a huge leap towards the true sound and identity of the 3RD ATTEMPT. While our debut album "Born in Thorns" represented the CARPATHIAN FOREST era of our song writing, "Egocidal Path" is a newly written album that is more aggressive, tighter and in-your-face. It also showcases the fantastic drumming skills of Tybalt (FORTID, DEN SAAKALDTE) and the vocal range and creativity of Ødemark, allowing the listener to slip into his personal universe of wrath, ego, human spite and the glory of suicide".
"Egocidal Path" will be released in CD, Digital and LP formats, is now available to pre-order from the following:
