Apocalyptica have premiered a new video for their new song “Rise.” This track is from the band’s new instrumental album “Cell-0,” which will be released on January 10.
Director/writer Lisa Mann worked on the clip with cinematographer Jason George and had the following to say about it:
“The idea was to make a video that was whimsical and captivating, that would transport the viewer into an alternate dimension that mirrors our society and today’s importance of compassion and empathy. Characters in this world fall and rise again, and ultimately come together to help each other rise.”
“Apocalyptica’s music is timeless, very emotional and cinematic, and we wanted the ‘Rise’ video to reflect that.”
Apocalyptica’s Eicca Toppinen added the following about the song:
“‘Rise’ is a statement of hope, there is always a brighter side, no matter how dark or hopeless things seem to be. To believe in good and beauty, staying true to yourself and not giving up on that.”
