Outloud - "Virtual Heroes" (video)
Ο νέος δίσκος των Outloud είναι προ των πυλών. Τιτλοφορείται "Virtual Hero Society" κι αναμένεται στα μέσα Σεπτεμβρίου. Είναι ο τέταρτος full length δίσκος του Ελληνικού σχήματος και πέμπτος συνολικά (μαζί με την περσινή συλλογή "Destination: Overdrive (The Best of Outloud)")...
Δελτίο τύπου: «OUTLOUD IS BACK! “Virtual Hero Society” (aka VHS) on ROAR! Rock Of Angels Records, is their first full-length since 2014’s “Let’s Get Serious”, and their second release on ROAR, the first being Destination: Overdrive - the Best of Outloud, which featured their popular cover of the Pointer Sisters’ hit “I’m So Excited”, in 2015.
This time, with the album title, theme and title track and first single, “Virtual Heroes”, Outloud abandons their general “playful” approach and goes toward deeper subject matter, tackling what could be called the “double-edged sword” of technology in today’s society, as evidenced by the album cover.»
Outloud: «We love the whole new retro wave but on the other hand we don't live in the past. This video is representative of how the new Outloud album sounds like: it's old but fresh, it's melodic but heavy, it's something familiar yet completely new.
Somewhere between Guns & Roses, Annihilator, Eclipse and Iron Maiden we feel that we have evolved our personal sound and have contributed to the world metal scene with a really strong album.
"Virtual Heroes" is definitely one of the less obvious melodic/arena rock/AOR video-singles; the album is full of them. We just wanted to make a difference and a statement.»
