Raleigh, NC (Top40 Charts/ Revival Recording) North Carolina pop-metal icons Alesana will be releasing a music video for the stand alone single "Fatima Rusalka" on Top40-Charts.com today, May 13th.
Fresh off of their full US tour in support of the recently released The Decade EP, the band is ready to shift gears back into their critically acclaimed Annabel trilogy. The music video, directed by Rita Baghdadi, is a collection of live footage captured on the aforementioned tour during their performances in Hollywood, Pomona, and Baltimore.
Singer/songwriter Shawn Milke explains, "The Fatima video was a chance to not only work with my very talented sister-in-law, but it also allowed us to capture the energy and power of our live performance."
"Fatima Rusalka" lyrically serves as a bridge between the band's last full length A Place Where The Sun Is Silent and the forthcoming conclusion to the trilogy. Nominated for
Revolver Magazine's Song of the Year 2013, it has received positive feedback from fans and critics, alike.
"Fatima Rusalka" is available on iTunes via Revival Recordings.
ABOUT ALESANA
Positive Mental Attitude. This is the mantra that is not only a driving force for Raleigh, North Carolina based Alesana, but also a way of life. Celebrating ten years as a band, the pop-metal sextet is always in high spirits and accustomed to playing their hearts out every night when on the road. Countless US tours, several trips around the world, and six major releases later, Alesana is living proof that hard work and dedication dreams can go a long, long way.
Newly inked to Raleigh based Revival Recordings, the band is slated to release the conclusion to their Annabel trilogy in the fall of 2014. The yet-to-named album will be produced by Alesana's own Shawn Milke and engineered by Neil Engle at Adelaide Recording Studios in Raleigh, North Carolina.
Released in December of 2013, the stand-alone single Fatima Rusalka progressed the band's conceptual trilogy and served as a bridge to their forthcoming full length release, the final piece of a three-part story. The song does what can only be expected of the storytelling rock machine which is to draw from past influences while incorporating new possibilities, dynamics, and sonic exploration.
Having spent time on Tragic Hero Records, Fearless Records, and Epitaph Records, Alesana's entire catalogue of Try This With Your Eyes Closed, On Frail Wings of Vanity and Wax, Where Myth Fades To Legend, The Emptiness, and A Place Where The Sun Is Silent has charted on the Billboard Top 200.
Alesana's latest release The Decade EP is now available on iTunes via Artery Recordings.
