Virtuosic extreme metallers OBSCURA have delivered an early Christmas present for their fans. Today, they release a brand new video for "Heritage", another track from their latest album A Valediction.
As with their previous video for "The Neuromancer", the video for "Heritage" was filmed by Mirko Witzki (Arch Enemy, Powerwolf, Kreator) at the famous Kupfersaal in Cologne, Germany in August 2022. The theatre was built in 1820 and has been protected for decades after being declared a historic monument.
Mastermind Steffen Kummerer comments on the video: “'Heritage' has been plotted as a prequel to the album cover for „A Valediction“. The moment Eliran Kantor captured with his wonderful artwork might be explained most suitably with this brand new video clips. To stay connected while being separated.”
Watch the video for "Heritage" below.
