The mighty At the Gates have released their first video from the band’s upcoming album, At War with Reality. The track, “Death And The Labyrinth,” is from the new record, due out October 28th, which will be the band’s first album since their 1995 release of the iconic Slaughter of the Soul.

Said vocalist Tomas Lindberg on the new video:

“We had a very special idea about the kind of approach we wanted for the first video from “At War With Reality”. What we needed was someone gifted enough to throw himself artistically into the project full on. The lyrics to the song are very multi-layered and surreal, so we wanted someone to create a fevered dreamworld that went with the melancholic frustration and dramatic desperation that we feel comes across in the song. This is exactly what Patric has created for us. It’s his vision of the music and lyrics, which compliments the track perfectly in my opinion. I couldn’t be happier!”

The video was directed by Patric Ulleus, who has directed videos for Amaranthe, In Flames, Within Temptation and more.
