Swedish melodic death metal pioneers AT THE GATES continue to promote their acclaimed latest studio album “The Nightmare Of Being” by launching a new video clip for the track ‘Garden Of Cyrus’ today.
Created by long-time collaborator Costin Chioreanu / Twilight13Media, the clip for the outstanding track ‘Garden Of Cyrus’
AT THE GATES vocalist Tomas Lindberg Redant comments about the video as follows: “For our latest video, ‘Garden Of Cyrus’, we have once again chosen to work with our long-time partner Costin Chioreanu. And I think it is safe to say that this time he has truly outdone himself! It is a different song, at least in death metal terms, and of course it needed a different idea for the video. Once again, we let Costin do his own interpretation of the music and the lyrics, and he has taken us on a real psychedelican now be seen here: https://youtu.be/CwRpaxd_DWwc journey with this one. I think this is the song on our latest album “The Nightmare Of Being” that raised the most eyebrows in the metal community. And I am proud that we as a band can still surprise people, adding another dimension to our sound, without losing the essence of what AT THE GATES is. Enjoy!”

This time we will hit the road with our long-time friends In Flames. It’s such a weird fact that we have actually never toured together, although we are from the same town!
