Red Raven Down released a music video from upcoming EP!


Finnish, Seinäjoki based metalcore band Red Raven Down released a new music video ‘Ashes’. The track is taken from their upcoming EP ‘Phantoms’ which is released December 15th 2017 by Inverse Records. EP was recorded, mixed and mastered by Mika Autio (HallaFreakquency)

Singer Jani Korpela comment:
“We were seeking fresh sounds, still we wanted to take something where we ended with our first singles. Reaching rock bottom, but still there is some light to reach. Ashes music video captured song’s ambience pretty damn well. Song is about losing something very close and even the darkest hearted can empower in the end.”

Music video Ashes was directed by Riku Männistö and it is available here: https://youtu.be/lY95uRro_4E
