Symphonic metal Vikings Leaves’ Eyes have unveiled a music video for “War Of Kings” taken from their brand new concept album “The Last Viking”.
Conceptually, “The Last Viking” focuses on England in the year 1066 and the decisive battle near Stamford Bridge. Warriors are fighting death, the grounds are soaked in blood. Norway’s King Harald III, called Hardrada („the hard ruler“) lies dying. His whole life flashes before his eyes: cruel wars, fights over power, journeys to exotic worlds guiding to powerful women, emperors and kings falling into ruin. The last Viking King is dead and the Vikings’ age is over. Besides the familiar Elina Siirala-Alex Krull vocal duo, the album features guest vocals by Clémentine Delauney (Visions Of Atlantis) on a new album version of “Black Butterfly”. “The Last Viking” dropped on October 23 via AFM Records.
