Black death band, Ephialtes, have released the video to “To the Victims of Sirens” from their forthcoming debut album Melas Oneiros, set for release on November 1st.
Of “To the Victims of Sirens,” Quazarre shares,
“The song ‘To the Victims of Sirens’ draws upon a story from Homer’s “Odyssey” – our titular protagonist, Odysseus, trying to reach home after the Trojan war and lands on the island of Sirens. Their beautiful, mesmerizing voices lead sailors to their doom, causing them to crash their ships and drown in the process. While Odysseus commanded his crew to stuff their ears with wax as a protection and ordered them to tie him to the mast of the ship, in the song our character falls victim to the Sirens’ deceiving singing and ultimately shares the abysmal fate of men that came there before him.”
