LIV SIN Launches New Video For "Antihero" By Larry Petro, News Monkey Wednesday, November 2, 2022 @ 7:25 AM
“The song “Antihero” came to me after yet another mass shooting”, Jagrell tells about the theme of the song. “It is an imagery scenery of brutality and chaos, and the immense fear you go through when searching for a way out of that hell. I wonder what drives a person to do something like that, how someone can have so much anger and hate inside, but also I get surprised every time that nothing change, nothing happens. I’m a pacifist and I can’t really get my head around how the right to have a gun seems more important than human lives.”
“Antihero” is out today as a digital single and official video. Watch the official video now on KNAC.COM HERE. The new LIV SIN album, KaliYuga is due on January 27th.
Back in 2016 vocalist Liv Jagrell, known worldwide as the frontwoman for SISTER SIN, let the music world know that she had formed a new band. LIV SIN, driven by massive guitar riffs and a heavy modern metal sound released their debut album Follow Me in 2017. Their second album, Burning Sermons was released in 2019. Both albums spawned multiple popular singles such as "Let me Out" and "Blood Moon Fever".
Fast forward to 2023, after a two-year down period and revamped line-up, LIV SIN is now completely recharged and ready to hit the stages again. Not forgetting the record shops’ racks, with their new album, KaliYuga. KaliYuga, referring to the fourth of the four “Yugas” in Hinduism, the era precisely dedicated to the present age, full of conflict and... sin. The theme of Kali Yuga was also reflected in the album’s writing process.
“Since we produced this album ourselves, we definitely tried out a lot of new things, and I confess, I went a bit crazy with the vocals in certain parts”, Liv declares.
Musically, KaliYuga is LIV SIN on steroids! Jagrell explains how the creative process developed into an energetic and varied set of songs: “We took influences from everywhere, from newer metal acts such as ARCHITECTS, PARKWAY DRIVE to vocal inspiration from KING DIAMOND. I am ecstatic with the outcome.”
With such an album in hands, LIV SIN could only pick a production team that would do justice to the songs. Simon Johansson (from WOLF and MEMORY GARDEN fame) and Mike Wead (KING DIAMOND and MERCYFUL FATE axeman) were summoned to record the album, while the mix and mastering duties were delivered to console-wizard Tue Madsen (WITCHERY, THE HAUNTED, AT THE GATES). A winning team for a strong and cohesive album that will for sure kick off 2023 in a true heavy way.
KaliYuga will be released on digital, digipack CD and LP (black vinyl, limited to 500 units) via Mighty Music on January 27th, 2023.
