One of the most exciting years for the German Modern Metal institution is coming to an end – though EQUILIBRIUM are far from taking it slow: Ahead of their upcoming tour with DIE APOKALYPTISCHEN REITER at the end of December, the band released an official music video for its new single “Cerulean Skies”, directed and produced by Hammer & Tiger Productions.
Founding member René Berthiaume states: “When people tell us what they associate with the music of EQUILIBRIUM we often hear that they are being taken on a small journey with the songs. That’s what we tried again with the music and also the video of ‘Cerulean Skies’. We are very excited to release this next element of EQUILIBRIUM.”

By blending a furious Modern Metal sound with elements of traditional Folk, Germany’s EQUILIBRIUM have created a distinctive sound that is enthralling and spiritually up-lifting. Since its foundation in 2001, they have proven to be one of the most innovative and durable groups in their genre, touring the world several times over and adding to their legacy with every performance. Now, as they enter their third decade together, EQUILIBRIUM is as inspired as ever, creating some of the most inspired music of their career.
EQUILIBRIUM’s longevity can be largely attributed to their willingness to grow and evolve, consistently exploring new sonic territories and revealing different sides of their artistry with each release. But the core of their appeal has remained consistent: harsh Metal presented with vast cinematic soundscapes that speak to the entire human experience.
In spite of its often dark tonality, Equilibrium’s music is meant to evoke feelings of hope and confidence. They incorporate aspects of many different musical cultures, focusing on the things that unite us as people, rather than the things that define us.
