Norwegian metal/rock act Leprous have released a music video for their song titled “Nighttime Disguise,” which appears on their recently released full-length opus on InsideOut Music dubbed ‘Aphelion.’ Check out the clip below.
Leprous comment, “Finally, we are happy to see “Aphelion” be released all over the world and share its full content with all of you. It’s an album with lots of interesting, unique stories behind the making and production of each song, being recorded in 3 different studios, over a longer time than usually…”
Regarding the clip, a presser adds, “The music video for “Nighttime Disguise” is based on footage filmed and produced by the company Munin Live as part of the livestream project “Let’s write a song together”, which took place on January 2021 and for which the band was under the sights of video cameras 24/7 at the studio Ocean Sound Recordings to write this composition based on the vote of their fans.”
Leprous explain further, “‘Nighttime Disguise’ started as an experiment, where we let the fans join us virtually in the studio, and being able to vote for different parameters to write a song: Time signature(s), key(s), what kind of instruments, vocal style(s) and range, lyrical content etc. Our original plan was to have the result as a bonus track, but we ended up so happy with it that we couldn’t let it pass. Sometimes certain limitations force you to think differently and push you to new and more creative directions! This video shows a lot from the week of the songwriting, arrangement and production of ‘Nighttime Disguise’.”
