Альбом: Fleshgod Apocalypse - Opera (2024) FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE - I Can Never Die (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO) Official music video for “I Can Never Die“ by Italian symphonic metal giants FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE The sixth album, Opera, is out August 23, 2024 via Nuclear Blast Records. The sixth album titled Opera is a gut-wrenching musical journey inspired by the tragic mountain climbing accident that occurred to frontman and mastermind Francesco Paoli in 2021. With this new record, the band are setting the bar even higher than before, pioneering what looks like a completely new sub-genre that might be called Opera Metal: an unprecedented mix of extreme music and theatrical elements. “The best stories always come from pain, it’s a bitter truth yet undeniable.” Francesco P. states. “We managed to turn one of the worst things in life into a work of art, that embodies our personal and artistic growth and takes the listeners on a rollercoaster of emotions, where they can experience what I’ve been through hand in hand with me. It’s a waking nightmare but that’s how life is sometimes, just scary.” “In my visionary representation of this journey, that begins with my near death experience and culminates in a much desired physical and psychological rebirth, I wanted to frame every single step of my calvary, as if they were acts of an “Opera Lirica“, with dialogues or even confessions to imaginary characters, who have been constant presences throughout my whole (mis)adventure. This album tosses you in a vortex of discomfort and uncontrollable feelings, where you can experience pain, fear, desperation, anger, frustration, but also resolve, courage, hope and a profound desire for redemption. I strongly believe that this album is a solid manifest of resilience, and I hope that my story will inspire people who got “lost” for whatever reason.” “I Can Never Die“ is a crushing sonic tribute to artists and their enduring works. Commenting on the song, frontman Francesco Paoli states: “Memory is the strongest force in the universe, as it’s the one and only that can give us immortality. It can’t be deceived or shaped to our liking as, in the end, we are what we do and what we leave to posterity faithfully reflects what kind of men and women we’ve been. Some people don’t give the right value to their actions, focusing on immediate profit, and forgetting that our choices have a decisive impact on our and other people’s existence. Especially when you are an artist. It’s essential to remember that everything we create outlives us, it has a life of its own and, once it’s brought into existence, it belongs to everyone and we have no more control over it. Death can occur abruptly any time and there’s no chance to change what it’s done, once we’re gone. As far as I’m concerned, one of my first thoughts when I realized that I could have died was “who have I been” and “what am I leaving behind”. I recollected my whole life and figured out how much determination, sacrifice and honesty I’ve put into art and that made me so proud that I would have died in peace. That’s why we wrote this song, which is nothing but a glorious anthem for all those who commit their existence to art in the purest possible way.“ --- Fleshgod Apocalypse Francesco Paoli Veronica Bordacchini Francesco Ferrini Fabio Bartoletti Eugene Ryabchenko --- Video Credits Directed and edited by Martina L.
