LION'S SHARE: 'Judas Must Die' Video Vignette Available

March 7, 2009

To help introduce the new LION'S SHARE album, "Dark Hours", the band and Blistering Records have prepared a little multi-course menu of sonic appetizers to help satisfy your metal cravings. During the recording of the album, the band filmed several video vignettes wherein they take a particular song from the "Dark Hours" sessions and give us a little insight into the tracks creation and the overall experience of how it ultimately became part of the album.

The tracks will be presented one at a time on the Blistering Records web site as well as on LION'S SHARE's newly created YouTube page.

The first clip, which is for the first single and video song "Judas Must Die", can be viewed below.

"Dark Hours" is scheduled for release on March 25 via Blistering Records. The follow-up to 2007's "Emotional Coma" was mixed and mastered by Jens Bogren (OPETH, SYMPHONY X, PARADISE LOST, AMON AMARTH) and features guest appearances by SYMPHONY X guitarist Mike Romeo (guest solo on "Behind The Curtain"),and drummers Conny Pettersson (from Earache Records death metal act ANATA) and Richard Evensand (CHIMAIRA, SOILWORK).

The band states: "The new songs are simply awesome and everybody that has heard it thinks it's our best album to date. The red thread lyric-wise on this album is that all songs are about things that happened in the late Sixties; a decade known for many good things. However, we're not describing the happy times of the Sixties: We give you the 'Dark Hours'. Musically, it's more straight-forward and faster than ever. The songs are filled with energy and great hooks."

LION'S SHARE filmed a video for "Judas Must Die" in Stockholm, Sweden with director Josef Doukkali. LION'S SHARE previously worked with Doukkali on the clip for the track "The Edge Of The Razor", from the "Emotional Coma" album. The band's original decision to work with Doukkali was based in part on the fact that his background was not in music video but in narrative film projects, and that his more cinematic approach would give the clip a unique look and feel.
