A music video for the The Agonist‘s new single “In Vertigo” has officially landed on the net. The song is the first single to be launched from the group’s new album, “Orphans“, which is set for a September 20th release via Napalm Records/Rodeostar Records. The band’s vocalist Vicky Psarakis has also commented on what to expect with the record, offering:

“When I heard the first instrumentals for ‘Orphans‘ I was a bit shocked and confused. The music was really dark and heavier than anything we’ve done in previous albums and I wasn’t quite sure how I’d be able to match that emotion. But then you know all it took was writing one full song to get the ball rolling and 2-3 months later everything was done!

With every new album, we love to experiment and dip our toes into new territory, but there’s also a lot of elements here that are reminiscent of the earlier days. You can expect a lot of hard hitting, fast-paced madness and many many blast beats! Vocally, there’s a wide range of styles, some of which I tried out for the first time, and the lyrics are mostly inspired from horror stories and real-life tragedies. Events that I felt a lot of people can relate to.

‘Orphans‘ is my third album with The Agonist and I can’t wait to show the world what we created! We’re excited to finally share the first taste with all of you… Get ready for ‘In Vertigo!‘”
