Cemetery Skyline unveil fifth single "Behind The Lie" with official music video

Melodeath supergroup Cemetery Skyline have unveiled the fifth single, "Behind The Lie", from their upcoming album Nordic Gothic, out October 11th, 2024 via Century Media Records.

Pre-order Nordic Gothic here. 

The group features featuring Mikael Stanne (Dark Tranquility/The Halo Effect), Markus Vanhala (Insomnium/Omnium Gatherum), Santeri Kallio (Amorphis), Victor Brandt (Dimmu Borgir) and Vesa Ranta (Sentenced).

Drummer Vesa Ranta shared the folling:

As the band's drummer and professional video director, you are wearing two hats and it's always a challenge. However, I found the challenge meaningful, so I definitely wanted to make a video for our band. I love old horror and crime movie classics and wanted to bring the same kind of visual narrative and atmosphere to the 'Behind the Lie' video: Hitchcock goes goth, spiced up with 80's and 90's aesthetics. Working on the video was a great project. I truly feel that together with my partner Petri Marttinen we achieved the gloomy atmosphere we were looking for. 'Behind the Lie' is one of my absolute favourites on the album, it fully grabs my attention and hits hard. The mood of the song just sucks you in. It is the perfect song for the autumn that is about to start.

Vocalist Mikael Stanne added:

This one is all about discovering that what you have known to be truth and honesty is anything but these. It deals with the loss of trust and moving on. It is heavy and menacing, but also celebratory in its letting go of everything.
