David Priest of OnTrackMagazine.com recently conducted an interview with guitarist Obsidian C. of KEEP OF KALESSIN. Listen to the chat at this location.

KEEP OF KALESSIN recently shot a video for the song "Ascendant" in Gothenburg, Sweden with director Patrick Ullaeus, who has previously worked with such bands as DIMMU BORGIR, WITHIN TEMPTATION and IN FLAMES. According to the group, "It [is] a performance video shot on white screen / green screen and . . . [is] one of the 'baddest' metal videos of 2008!"

Watch the clip below.

"Ascendant" comes off KEEP OF KALESSIN's new album, "Kolossus", which was released in Europe on June 6 and in North America on June 10. The CD was made available via Indie Recordings and is licensed to Nuclear Blast for the following territories: Germany, Austria, Switzerland and rest of the world outside Europe (except Australia and Russia).

According to a press release, "KEEP OF KALESSIN is definitely the next big thing from Norway and will have a huge impact on the whole metal scene. The base of the music is for sure black metal, but KEEP OF KALESSIN are also including other influences like death metal, thrash metal and some non-metal components, making their style fresh and truly unique. You have to be deaf to not hear the incredible potential of the band. KEEP OF KALESSIN will soon be one of the main driving forces in extreme metal and one of THE bands of 2008. Be prepared for their matchless crusade!"
