At The Gates release “The Nightmare of Being” music video

Swedish melodic death metal greats At The Gates have released a music video for their track “The Nightmare of Being” — check out the clip (directed by Patric Ullaeus) below. The song serves as the title-track to the band’s just-released full-length offering on Century Media Records, ‘The Nightmare of Being.’

Vocalist Tomas Lindberg Redant comments, “One of the key tracks on the album, this one is really dark and haunting, with some classic old school AT THE GATES harmonies thrown in. I guess some of you have already read up on the concept of the album, this one is the introduction to said concept, introducing the main idea that mankind’s consciousness is the ghost of our nightmares, the plague that drives us to our own extinction.”

Tomas adds, “I am really happy that Patric Ullaeus got the chance to, once again, interpret the dark themes of our music with his video. He really gave this a special feeling, which I think goes really well with the theme of the abyss of the human soul. Today you can also, finally, listen to the whole album! Dive in! It is, as said before, the most rich, cinematic, textured, layered, progressive and dynamic album we have ever written. Thanks for listening!”
