EXCALION: 'Wingman' Video Posted Online

September 11, 2007

Finnish symphonic power metallers EXCALION filmed a video for the song "Wingman" in June with director Harri Pääkkönen. Watch the clip below.

"Wingman" comes off the group's latest album, "Waterlines", which came out in the U.S. on April 24 via Ryko Distribution. The follow-up to 2005's "Primal Exhale" was recorded and mixed at Watercastle studio by Arttu Sarvanne.

The band previously stated about the new CD, "The new songs are very mature both musically and lyrically. The whole band has improved a lot since their debut album in 2005 and the vocals of Jarmo Paakkonen are more impressive than ever. The actual music is fully rich in the songwriting and playing; it isn't prog or power metal anymore; there are strong influences of Euro melodic metal and U.S. hard rock. We could say the band found their 'own sound' for now!"

According to EXCALION, keyboard player Jarmo "Jappe" Myllyvirta "has been really creative in past few months and there are a lot of new songs ready for the future album. The songs sound really great and the band is tighter than ever."
