CELESTY Films 'Fading Away' Video

March 10, 2009

Finnish power metal band CELESTY filmed a video for the song "Fading Away" last weekend in Ylöjärvi with director Markus Nieminen of Routafilmi. The track comes off the group's fourth full-length album, "Vendetta", which will be released in Finland on March 18 (via Spinefarm Records) and in Japan on March 20. The CD features eleven tracks and over sixty minutes of music.

Samu Oittinen began mixing the album in early December, which proved to be a daunting task: At times there are over 300 tracks playing. The epic soundscape is reinforced by an orchestra consisting of musicians from the Tampere City Orchestra, and a professional choir. The orchestration and the choir parts were arranged and produced by the conductor Kalevi Olli, renowned for his work with the Finnish National Opera.

01. Prelude for Vendetta
02. Euphoric Dream
03. Greed & Vanity

12. Gates of Tomorrow (Japanese bonus track)

The cover artwork for "Vendetta" can be viewed below.

The CD features guest appearances by Stephan Lill (VANDEN PLAS) and Elias Viljanen (SONATA ARCTICA). Suvi-Tuuli Dietrich (ESCAPE) has contributed female vocals to the album.

CELESTY's third full-length effort, "Mortal Mind Creation", was released on October 30, 2006 via Dockyard 1.
