Caledonian Metal pioneer SAOR, has released the official music video for the brand new song, “Beyond the Wall,” which is taken from its upcoming fifth full-length album, “Origins”, out on June 24 via Season Of Mist. The music video was created by Guilherme Henriques.
“Origins” was mixed & mastered by Lasse Lammert at LSD-Studio, Germany.
SAOR mastermind Andy Marshall comments: “ ‘Beyond the Wall’ refers to the Antonine Wall which ran across the central belt of Scotland to keep the Caledonians/Picts at bay. The song is about their freedom, as they were not under Roman rule and the beauty and mystery of the lands beyond the wall.”
SAOR means free, without obligations, unconstrained. All of these characteristics are intrinsic to the music of SAOR, the musical entity spearheaded by sole member Andy Marshall. As a lone wanderer proudly shouting the tales and myths of his people, his culture and his region from the tops of misty Caledonian mountains for the wind to carry, Andy has carved a solitary, yet strikingly inspiring path with SAOR.
“Origins” delivers SAOR‘s profoundly atmospheric hybrid of Black and Folk Metal that takes the listener deep into the Scottish heartlands.
