German Melodic Death Metallers CREDIC, have unleashed an official music video for “The Mountains Between Us”. The track is taken from the band’s latest album, “Vermillion Oceans”, which was released on April 22nd through Black Lion Records. The video features not only CREDIC’s usual intense soundscapes, but also the legendary performer Olivia Jackson (Resident Evil).
Olivia Jackson was a Muay Thai fighter and a stunt double. She was injured in an accident when she was filming a high-speed motorcycle chase for Resident Evil: The Final Chapter in South Africa in 2015 (as a double for Milla Jovovich) and crashed into a metal camera arm. She suffered severe head injuries and a punctured lung and was placed in a medically-induced coma for 17 days. Her left arm was removed due to extensive damage.
CREDIC comments: “ ‘The Mountains Between Us’ is the grand finale in mastermind Thomas Kettner’s video trilogy for CREDIC’s album ‘Vermillion Oceans’. It’s a cinematic work of art starring the exceptional woman Olivia Jackson. A woman, a car, a mountain road, and a banging song. Lean back and enjoy.“
Featuring ten brand new tracks, with their second full-length record CREDIC deliver a furious and ferocious, yet emotional metal Iliad. An epic brand of Melodic Death Metal that is, despite upholding the very DNA of the genre, free and bold, charging with vigour and embellished by a monumental aura of longing not unlike the feeling you get when you gaze at the starlit sky in wonder and terror. Imagine a cross between Gothenburg metal and the score to “Stranger Things”, “Vermillion Oceans” sounds like a massive, zeitgeisty metal album taking a stroll through Hawkins, Indiana.
