EPIC, GRAND, COLOSSAL, MONOLITHIC. NEW EX DEO VIDEO.

 Tuesday, June 2nd, 2009 at 3:10pm by

Last week we told you about the epic, Roman-themed band Ex Deo, spearheaded by Kataklysm’s Maurizio Iocono. You could be a hipster-metal fart-knocker and roll your eyes at yet another pagan metal band, or you could take my word for it and click “play” on the fittingly epic video for “Romulus,” the album’s title track, below. This shit is epic. Did I say “epic” enough times yet? Grand. Colossal. Monolithic. All of these adjectives describe both the band and this video.

The video (and song) tells the ancient Roman tale of Romulus and Remus, and was filmed by director Stanimir “Staca” Lukic in Belgrade, Serbia. Romulus comes out on June 19th in Europe and June 30th in North America on Nuclear Blast Records. Catch Ex Deo on the Paganfest Europe tour this fall.

    Everyone knows that the Roman Republic was metal as fuck.

  • crank

    This fucking rules. Thanks man.

  • Wank

    Eh.

    If you just want a history lesson on Rome, then I guess check it out.

    Where are the metal bands that sing about other subjects? Like geography.
