On August 25th UK progressive metal troupe Opensight will release the ultimate version of their critically acclaimed album Mondo Fiction – Mondo Fiction: The Director’s Cut! Featuring the original album plus instrumental versions of every track, Mondo Fiction: The Director’s Cut allows the listener to discover new aspects of the immersive songs that explore the world of grindhouse films and classic genre cinema. As promised, the band will also be releasing new, exciting videos in the build up to the release of Mondo Fiction: The Director’s Cut, starting right here at Metal Epidemic with the band new video for ‘The Great Silence’. Speaking about this new video, the band commented:
“Filming ‘The Great Silence’ was a blast! We were able to capture how much we enjoy playing – and also had the chance to get back at our vocalist by re-enacting the torture scene from Reservoir Dogs with him as the victim! Referencing some iconic crime films was perfect for the song. People will also get some ideas of the inner band relationships and other activities we do outside of the musical dimension of the band.”
Metal bands don’t come more soaked in personality than Opensight! If you’re hankering for a cinematic journey of prog-loaded guitars and bombastic rhythms, entwined with the grandiosity of bands like Faith No More or Dog Fashion Disco, then look no further – Mondo Fiction: The Director’s Cut needs to be on your to-do list! Check out the new video premiere for ‘The Great Silence’ below:
Released digitally on August 25th Mondo Fiction The Director’s Cut is an enthralling and all encompassing listen that will offer a fabulous escape from the mundanity and pressures of the everyday world. If you have yet to discover the vibrant diversity of Opensight’s music, then this is the perfect opportunity to climb aboard, as their greatest work to date rides again. If you already know just how special the songs of Mondo Fiction are, then prepare to be transported even deeper into their kingdom of the imagination.
