CREST OF DARKNESS: 'Demon Child' Video Released

February 19, 2013

"Demon Child", the new video from Norwegian extreme metallers CREST OF DARKNESS, can be seen below. The track comes off the band's sixth full-length album, "In The Presence Of Death", which will be released on February 25 via My Kingdom Music. According to a press release, the CD "amply demonstrates that CREST OF DARKNESS are masters of the genre both in terms of writing and musicianship."

The "Demon Child" video is produced and directed by MONITORmedia. Photography is by Anders Børrensen and Levent Ultanur. Editing is by Øivind Kristiansen. The clip uses live footage of the band, which features the lineup of founder and frontman Ingar Amlien on vocals and bass, Rebo on lead guitars, Kjetil Hektoen (SJODOGG) on drums and Kjell Arne Hubred on rhythm guitars. Hubred left the band due to family and other commitments shortly after "In The Presence Of Death" was finished and has since been replaced by DJEVELKULT guitarist Jan Fredrik Solheim.

Formed in the mid-Nineties by frontman Ingar Amlien, CREST OF DARKNESS is a totally different beast from his former band CONCEPTION, which at that time was at the peak of its popularity. While CONCEPTION tended towards the progressive side of power metal, CREST OF DARKNESS allowed Amlien to indulge his passion for sonic brutality and his interest in vampirism and Satanic ideology, both of which are reflected in the band's lyrics.
