Swedish progressive melodic death metal band, Despite, have released a video for “Awakening”, a track from their debut album, Synergi, which was released on July 22nd via Eclipse Records.

“Awakening” tackles the topic of “poisonous political convictions” on the day after the US presidential election. The video was directed by Joel Nilsson of Maluha Media and filmed in the remote badlands of Vasterlanda, Sweden.

Synergi contains thirteen powerful songs of progressive, melodic death metal produced by Oscar Nilsson (Engel) at Crehate Studios.

The cover artwork was designed by the band’s singer Peter Tuthill, and it perfectly captures the album’s concept as a whole.
