Australia’s Buried In Verona will release their fourth studio album ‘Faceless’ in the UK on March 10TH via UNFD.
"Illuminate is a song you can't stop bouncing your head or singing along to and for this reason we can't wait to play it live but the message in the song is to stop pretending to be who others think you are or want you to be, it took me being in the deepest hole before I realised that all I have to do is be myself. ‘In the dark you will find, who you are inside’ (lyrics from illuminate). It means sometimes you need to see the worst before you see yourself.
The clip itself depicts the ‘Faceless’ men imprisoning and torturing people, keeping them and their voices suppressed until the prisoners get some courage and overthrow their ‘Faceless’ oppressors and break free which is a perfect metaphor for the song and much of the album." - Vocalist Brett Anderson
‘Faceless’ was recorded in Michigan with American Producer Joey Sturgis, whose work with Asking Alexandria and blessthefall has made him one of the most sought after heavy music producers in the world.
Since the release of BIV’s 2012 album, ‘Notorious’, the band have become one of most polarising bands in the Australian Heavy Music Community, simultaneously gaining popularity around the world while getting flamed from their online detractors. ‘Notorious’ debuted at #20 on the ARIA Charts in June 2012, and saw the band get their first ARIA Nomination in Hard Rock category. They packed out rooms around Australia upon release and went on to support The Amity Affliction on their arena tour. Followed by a worldwide release and multiple UK, Europe and North American tours with artists like Motionless In White, Attila, Emmure and Chelsea Grin.
“This record is as much a 'f*** you' to our detractors, as it is a message to people to keep being themselves no matter what’ says Brett.
A further taster will be unleashed in form of another video next Thursday, January 23 - keep your eyes peeled for the ‘Illuminate’ video!
Pre-orders will be available on 24th of January via iTunes, Amazon and Impericon.
