Music In Low Frequencies Release Stark New Video for “Unconsciousness”

Portugal may not be known as an international beacon of metal, but the Iberian country has spawned some surefire bangers over the years. Bands like Gaerea, Moonspell, and Soul of Anubis call that part of the world home, but something absolutely must be said for the gloomy sludge/death metal act from the city of Braga, Music In Low Frequencies.

Having released their sophomore full-length Catharsis last December, the band’s pushing their combination of black metal, doom, and post-metal out into the world. As such, they dropped a new music video for the droning and foreboding track “Unconsciousness.” With stark visuals that match the song’s mood, the single is sultry at one moment and blisteringly furious the next.

According to the band, the track has a focus on the ethereal, yet very real feelings that love can elicit.

“Unconsciousness talks about a variety of ambiguous feelings residing in our inner self. It’s the expression of the unquieting sensations that come from loving someone too much, and as you rise them to a godlike level, you start seeing all the toxicity coming from there. While you can see the beauty of it all, you also become aware of all the inherent harm and danger. That’s something that hits us all sometime.

“You can consider it as a love song, but above all we wish you’d listen to it as a song of hope and inspiration. The imagery we created for this video is particularly dark, with slightly bright tiny details, for we intended to recreate the vibe of the message going with the lyrics of this song and also with the hovering drone guitars.”

Catharsis is out right now. If you dig what’s going on below, be sure to pick your copy up today.
