Second single taken from Belgium doomlords Marche Funèbre´s upcoming full album "After The Storm", out next September 27th via Ardua Music as CD/LP/Tape.
Preorder at:
With anticipation building for the release of the new album from Marche Funèbre, After The Storm, the band have unveiled a stunning video for the second single from the album - the momentous title track. A supremely powerful song, laden with emotion, yet measured, graceful and poignant in its delivery, 'After The Storm' tells the story of a person haunted by the effects of past trauma, searching for meaning in life and a reason to go on. It's a song that demanded something very special for its visual representation and with the help of director Michaël Godart, Marche Funèbre have achieved exactly that.
Speaking about the video, Marche Funèbre vocalist Arne Vandenhoeck said: _“We are delighted to present the video for our new album's title track 'After the Storm'. It's our first real video since 2017s 'Lullaby of Insanity'.This time we worked with director Michaël Godart whom we got to know from his great work for Soul Dissolution and others. The story was conceived by Michaël and our very own Boris, and gives one possible interpretation of the lyrics. Please be aware that we in no condition support (domestic) violence.We hereby want to thank everyone involved in the making process, the actors, volunteers at our show and all enthusiasts who came out to make this one hell of a video!"_

LYRICS
I survived the eye and the storm
Still hear the silence, lasting forever
I endured the call and the end
Still feel the shivers, vertebrae long
Still hear the silence, lasting forever
Head covered, eyes wide shut
Broken, yet breathing
Bleeding, yet moving
A body almost ruined
A mind merely sane
I survived this living hell... to live
After the end... to descend to hell?
What is there to live for?
Why should I keep moving on?
More questions than answers
More tears than laughter
More crippled than healthy
I lifted my head (chin up)
And I opened my eyes
Is this the beginning after the end?
Is this the beginning after the storm?
I remain scarred and deformed
Blood and tears (after the end)
I remain scarred and deformed
Blood and tears (after the storm)
Is this the beginning after the end?
Is this the beginning after the storm?
