STREAM OF PASSION: 'The Curse' Lyric Video Released

March 7, 2014

The official lyric video for the song "The Curse" from Dutch/Mexican symphonic/progressive metallers STREAM OF PASSION can be seen below. The track is taken from the band's new album, "A War Of Our Own", which will be released on April 18 via PIAS/Rough Trade. The CD is described in a press release as "the result of the struggle the band had to endure after they decided to part ways with their record label and continue on their own path."

Comments STREAM OF PASSION singer Marcela Bovio: "A corporate impasse such as this affects your peace of mind.

"The idea of crowd funding changed everything. It was heart-warming to see how many people were prepared to support us and what they were willing to do to secure our future. Through this, we've grown closer to our fans; they played a major part in creating this album."

The red thread of the album is conflict in all its forms: personal battles, like disease and depression, corporate battles the band was confronted with themselves, but also the turmoil that destroys a land, mainly the drug wars of Mexico, the native country of Bovio. Musically the band has perfected their sound by ambitiously pushing their boundaries; "A War Of Our Own" is more progressive and melodic than ever, with symphonic elements and an emotional undertone, heavy with Latin-American influences.
