ENFORCER | Band premiere the official video for ‘Regrets’ in celebration of new album

BAND PREMIERE OFFICIAL VIDEO FOR ‘REGRETS’

NEW ALBUM ZENITH IS IN STORES NOW!
It’s been more than 4 years but today Swedish metallers ENFORCER finally unleash their fifth studio album Zenith via Nuclear Blast. To mark the occasion, the quartet is premiering the official music video for ‘Regrets’, an English adaption of TERMINAL’s song ‘Zadnji Izlet’. Check out the video, which was directed by Gustav Ohman Spjuth who also produced the ‘Die For The Devil’ music video, here: youtu.be/EQHA7ui5vyMBass player Tobias Lindqvist comments, “‘Regrets’ was originally written for and performed by TERMINAL. It’s a melancholic ballad with a strong chorus and felt like an interesting challenge to record with ENFORCER.”

Vocalist/guitarist Olof Wikstrand adds, “‘Regrets’ is by far the darkest song we have ever done. A real challenge to make it fit and to make it ours but eventually I’m really happy with how it came out.”

In addition, guitarist Jonathan Nordwall debuts as new permament member of the group on the forthcoming record. Comments Olof Wikstrand on the new record, “Zenith is definitely the most ambitious project we ever engaged ourselves in. I think all together we spent over two and a half years to write, produce and record it all. We are super excited to finally get this one out to you all. Beware the ‘Zenith Of The Black Sun’.” 

The drums were recorded at Soundtrade Studios, Stockholm and the rest of the tracking was completed at Hvergelmer Studios, Arvika. Zenith was produced by the band themselves and the artwork was created by Italian artist Velio Josto.

About Louise Swift

I first went to a gig in 1981, Gillan at Leeds University. I've been a regular gig goer ever since. I haven't kept count of how many gigs I've been to over the intervening years, but it's a lot! My favourite bands are AC/DC then, in no particular order, Anti-Nowhere League, Slaughter and the Dogs, Towers of London and Dirt Box Disco. I tend to like Glam/Punk and rude offensive lyrics, not sure what that says about me but as Animal would say 'So What!' The question was recently put to me - did I write for any online publications? My reply - No, but I'd like to! Planetmosh was suggested and I found myself offering to review Aces High Festival. Easy peasy I thought! Well not quite, if a jobs worth doing it's worth doing well! I had sixteen bands to research. I found I actually enjoyed that and it kept me too busy to be making lunatic comments on Facebook! ;) Then I felt a bit inadequately qualified. I mean, who am I to comment on others, when my musical expertise extends to being able to play a mean Greensleeves on the recorder and a passable Annie's song on the flute! Haven't picked up either instrument for years! What I do have, however, is over 30 years of experience as a gig goer, so I can comment on what I like and what I don't! It's only my opinion and, if I don't like a band it doesn't mean they are bad, just not to my own liking. I admire anyone who has the guts to get up on that stage and have a go!
