\nLos Angeles metal act, WINDS OF PLAGUE, have debuted an all new music video for their brand new track, “Never Alone\u201d. Directed by Orie McGinness, this is the first bit of music we’re hearing from the band from their upcoming LP.<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2019Never Alone\u2019 was actually one of the first songs written for this record and immediately became the balance point for the remaining songs that were to be written,” says vocalist Johnny Plague. “It’s not the heaviest song of the record and it isn’t the most melodic song of the record. I wanted this to be the first taste of the new album because I feel it best represents the new music showcasing both the dark symphonic arrangements and the vast range of vocal styles used on the record.<\/p>\n

“I have always used WOP music videos as an opportunity to create cinematic shorts. \u2018Never Alone\u2019 is no different. We partnered with Enlighten Creative Studio’s to tell the story of a misunderstood woman who has harnessed her inner demons to her advantage. I design and produce haunted attractions for my career so it’s always fun when I can bring my two worlds together to create these videos.”<\/p>\n

Winds Of Plague will release Blood Of My Enemy via Entertainment One Music (eOne) \/ Good Fight Music on October 27th. The all new effort will be the follow up to the widely celebrated Resistance LP released in 2013.<\/p>\n

Johnny continues, “Over a year ago I started making weekly trips up to a small apartment in North Hollywood on my days off to work on music for WOP with Noah Sebastian from Bad Omens. It was strange at first since past WOP records were worked on in larger recording studio’s or rehearsal spaces and now here I am sitting on the floor of this bedroom working on record number six.”<\/p>\n

“Never Alone” is available as an iTunes instant gratification track. Fans who pre order the LP on iTunes will get the track as an instant download. “Never Alone” is also available on all streaming platforms starting today.<\/p>\n

Johnny continues, “Although it was different and humbling it proved to be the unedited creative environment we needed for this record. We had no time limits, no ‘suits’ giving their input. It was just a few friends sitting in a room together, having a good time creating music. Something I haven’t been able to experience in a very long time. Sometimes to move forward you have to take a few steps back. I can confidently say this is the most satisfied I have been with a WOP record. I feel producer’s Noah Sebastian and Joakim Karlsson have helped us to further develop our unique approach to symphonic deathcore with distinct epic orchestral backed chorus’s walking the fine line of brutal and melodic.”<\/p>\n

Additionally, the band teamed up with artist P\u00e4r Olofsson to create the stunning cover art seen below. “Blood Of My Enemy takes us back to the iconic samurai theme. The imagery is inspired by a lyric from the title track ‘I will give my life on the battlefield, drowning in the blood of my enemy’ Which represents to me a ‘I will fight to the end’ state of mind. P\u00e4r Olofsson brilliantly portrays the aftermath of an epic war showing an almost celestial spark of life amongst the carnage.”
