WATCH THE NEW MUSIC VIDEO FOR “MALEFIC VISIONS“ FROM STEVE DADAIAN ONLY ON OUTBURN.COM
Steve Dadaian’s second solo album, Revenant City, featuring Jordan Rudess (Dream Theater), Marco Minnemann, and Redvard Dolanski, drops today along with a new video.
“Of all the songs on the album, ‘Malefic Visions‘ felt like the right way to start the journey for the listener. The ominous fingerstyle acoustic guitar arrangements tie all the layers of the song together, including the heavy rhythms and soaring leads found throughout. While a studio album can often reflect rehearsed, structured material, the intro and outro were taken from improvisations I did on my social media channels during the songwriting process, which is an approach I haven’t taken before. The contrast between the delicate acoustic passages and the crushing heaviness is stark, but intentional—and it’s in that tension that the song finds its identity. The album story opens in the middle of the ocean and just like the waves the song ebbs and flows. The accompanying visual, filmed in Brooklyn, New York, carries a haunting atmosphere that also mirrors the themes laid out in the album’s story.” – Steve Dadaian
