The Brazilian band X-EMPIRE, which promotes a modern, complex and hybrid mix of Prog Metal, Groove Metal, Djent and Metalcore, shares a brand-new cathartic, tense and emotional music video for their latest single "My Demons" on their YouTube channel, addressing the troubling and current issue of the daily struggle against depression, suicide, drug addiction, and other psychological illnesses.
Watch "My Demons (The Price Of Blood)" below:
The lyric theme of "My Demons" is a metaphor against all kinds of wars, also including the daily battle against the inner demons that haunt a great part of humanity.
Michel Villares, singer, producer and also responsible for the lyrics of "My Demons", was initially influenced by the conflict in Ukraine and Russia, creating an anti-war theme trying, in some way, to show solidarity with the people of these countries, but as the theme developed other forms of war were being addressed.
