CELESTY Film 'Fading Away' Video

Finnish power metal warriors CELESTY filmed their first official music video for the song 'Fading Away' last weekend. The video was directed Markus Nieminen from Routafilmi and it was filmed in the scenery of Ylöjärvi.

According to a band update, "the weekend was especially busy to Antti Railio (vocals) who participated Kuorosota, the Finnish edition of the BBC smash hot format talent show Choir Wars. Timo Kotipelto (STRATOVARIUS) conducted the victorious Choir. Railio had honour to sing the leads in the songs: QUEEN's 'I Want It All' and AC/DC's You Shook Me All Night Long'!

Celesty's forthcoming album Vendetta, will be released on March 18th in Finland, March 20th in Japan and in May for the rest of the world.

Orchestrated by Kalevi Olli, better known for his work with Finnish National Opera and played by Tampere Philharmonic Orchestra, Celesty’s fourth outing is said to be “a symphonic exercise in grandeur, with the melodic hooklines of SONATA ARCTICA, Epic proportions of RHAPSODY OF FIRE and warrior spirit MANOWAR” and “a fantastic, grandiose Tour de Force through the enchanted kingdoms of Epic Symphonic Power Meta.”

The tracklisting is as follows: 'Prelude For Vendetta', 'Euphoric Dream', 'Greed & Vanity', 'Like Warriors', 'Autumn Leaves', 'Feared By Dawn', 'Lord (Of This Kingdom)', 'New Sin', 'Dark Emotions', 'Fading Away', 'Legacy of Hate Pt. 3', 'Gates of Tomorrow' (Japanese edition bonus track).

The album also features guest performances by Sonata Arctica's Elias Viljanen, VANDEN PLAS' Stephan Lill and ESCAPE's Suvi-Tuuli Dietrich. A snippet from the song “Lord (Of This Kingdom)” can be heard here.
