Tribulation Release Track “Saturn Coming Down”, Will Support Opeth on Coming Tour
Swedish metal titans Tribulation have returned with a haunting new single and accompanying music video for “Saturn Coming Down.” It’s a gloomy new offering that’s hopefully setting us up for their eventual follow up to 2021’s Where the Gloom Becomes Sound.
Speaking of the track itself, Guitarist Adam Zaars clarified that it’s not about the sixth planet in our solar system, but rather it’s about the ancient Roman god of time (among other things).
“‘Saturn Coming Down’ is a song that creeps up on you and that hopefully gets thoroughly under your skin. It’s a taste of the new musical areas we’ve charted that has taken us to places we’ve never ventured into before. It’s an ode to a very old titan who constantly seems to be lurking behind our backs.
“As many of you will know we have always strived to push our own musical boundaries and to let the music change and grow with us, and vice versa, and to carve out our own niche in metal in general and in our own musical landscape in particular. ‘Saturn Coming Down’ is the next stage in that ongoing process. It’s a song about Saturn and our various interpretations and imaginings of him throughout the millennia. Helping us with visualizing this we had the pleasure of working with Brendan McGowan who really outdid himself with this video. We also had help from our friend Damón Zurawski who shot us here in Sweden. We couldn’t be happier with the result! Death is the way of the world!”
In addition to the new music video, Tribulation announced that they’ll be the supporting act for Opeth‘s previously announced North American tour. You can find the full list of dates below and get your tickets today.
