Excellion Debut Video for "Unlucky Charms" Off Upcoming EP "Unsean"

Mexican metal quintet, Excellion, has debuted a video single from their upcoming EP titled Unsean, due on August 6th, 2016. This 5-track EP was mixed and mastered by Luke Martin (Plini, Nick Johnston) in Peterborough, United Kingdom. The video for "Unlucky Charms" was directed by Sofia Ptacnik.

"The story of the song may be a little different from the video of a metal band and that's the whole point, " singer and bassist Adrian Vilbel commented. "The song talks about your self, a reunion with your inner child asking you if what you're doing right now is what you've always dreamed of and the video it's like an alternate reality where there's this magical instrument that is capable of make you a virtuoso in any musical endeavor you may take and that's why it's so valuable and anyone wants it, even people with a lot of money and what we see at the start of the video. You know, we wanted to make something different to an always dark ambient metal video so that's why we made it that way, it was actually fun.

"We could relate the song and the video in a way that is kind of a dream of that inner child of yours telling you that sometimes there're more important things out there, so you should enjoy the ride and stop trying to take shortcuts, that's what make experiences so valuable, " he continues.

Unsean features only two concept songs — the opening "Unsean Pt. I – In Search of Infinity, " and closing piece "Unsean Pt. II – The Heart of the Sapphire."

"'Unlucky Charms' is not a part of this concept, along with the other two remaining songs on the EP, so it has nothing to do with the title but for us it meant a fresh air in our new sound and is an important part of Excellion's evolution, " Vilbel admits.

Excellion's plans for the future are known. "We're planning on taking the international scene for the very first time with this new material and from there, hopefully get to share the stage in every space we get around the world. And of course we're starting to write Unsean Pt. II too but that's another story."

About Excellion:

Although nowadays lots of countless sound fusions and textures in the whole world are converged, few are the ones that own the true capability of achieving expressions so distinctive, and at the same time displaying a vast surrounding energy like the one introduced in Excellion's most recent material Unsean.

With great resolve, the band is getting ready to get into worldwide scene on August 6th, 2016 with the release of their highly anticipated upcoming release Unsean.

Excellion – "always evolve, always excel" – is part of a new wave of Mexican projects with quite a unique sound, since it expresses a fusion from a full-energy Math Metal to modern progressive djenty rock.

It should be pointed out that Unsean represents Excellion's fourth music effort throughout their 8 year career, right after the release of Until Hope Collapses in 2012, Welcome Home My Son in 2011 and Haunted Days in 2009, all unique albums constantly evolving and living up to the band ́s name.

Over the years, Excellion played with great well-known international bands like Black Veil Brides, TesseracT, Haken, and Miss May I, among others.
