Italian Death SS has shared the second single and video, "Out To Get Me", from its forthcoming full-length, The Entity, due early next year.
"Out To Get Me" is a dark, orchestral ballad. The main character, Jekyll, becomes aware of the evil his alter ego has caused and of other people's reactions towards him. Tormented by doubts and remorse, his mental health degenerates and in a hallucinatory crescendo, wherever he flees, he feels haunted by hellish creatures - the monsters of his conscience.
Death SS's frontman Steve Sylvester comments: "When I had to think of a video to accompany this song, the first thing that came to mind was a classical ballet, an esoteric dance symbolising the eternal battle between good and evil. The dancer/demon and the dancer/angel face and fight each other, symbolising an eternal cycle of birth, death and rebirth. In this context there is no real final victory, but rather a constant flow of forces converging within the soul of the protagonist of the song, who suffers from this dualism. So I looked for two professionals who could embody this vision of mine, and I found them in the persons of Greta Bellintani and Gianluca D'Alò, who did their job very well. The location was the Viper Theatre in Florence, whose stage was well suited to the task".
Video clip's director Andrea Falaschi adds: "During the filming of this video, one of those 'alchemies' of cinema occurred that only insiders can see. The two dancers came from different cities, they had never seen each other or spoken to each other. In just a few minutes I instructed them on what I wanted on camera and as soon as they stepped on stage the magic clicked. It was as if they had known each other for years, with an incredible attunement. Without words, they embodied their characters giving them the personality I had described to them flawlessly. They were truly great professionals".
"Out To Get Me" is available digitally and as a 12" Limited Deluxe edition featuring a specially shaped cover with sky blue vinyl and contains the second of the four-part booklet with the full story behind the concept The Entity along with two other tracks on Side B, 'Two Souls' and ' Hell Is Revealed', included on the new album as well.
