If David Attenborough scored music documentaries the same way he does animal docs, I’d absolutely scream from excitement. That’s not happening in this case, but could you imagine? Anyway, Blood Incantation plan on releasing their documentary All Gates Open, with a soundtrack to boot.
The 73-minute juggernaut of a documentary score originally came as part of the deluxe edition of their latest album Absolute Elsewhere, while the actual footage itself documenting the writing and recording of it at the Hansa Tonstudio in Berlin, Germany.
Vocalist/guitarist Paul Riedl described this release a little more in depth:
“It’s not the next album or follow-up to Absolute Elsewhere, it’s the soundtrack to the documentary about making the album with songs that are from before. The documentary deserves to be experienced, not just as content for the internet. The soundtrack captures the very first seed of what led to Absolute Elsewhere. This is where that era started.”
All Gates Open (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) will release on June 5 via Century Media. The mixing and mastering was done by Arthur Rizk, with Jodie Day handling the artwork.
All Gates Open (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) tracklist:
1. Balance
