Hanging Garden premiere a music video for the first single »Winter’s Kiss« taken from the forthcoming album, »Skeleton Lake«

Finnish melodic doom/death metal outfit Hanging Garden also featuring guitarist/vocalist Jussi Hämäläinen (Mercury Circle, The Chant) premiere a music video for the first single »Winter’s Kiss« taken from the forthcoming album, »Skeleton Lake«, out on May 21st, 2021 via Lifeforce Records. »Skeleton Lake« will be available on limited vinyl, digipak CD and digital.

The band comments: “»Winter’s Kiss« is quite a fresh take in Hanging Garden’s reprtoire: a quirky gothic rock song composed as a collaboration between Toni Hatakka, Jussi Hämäläinen and Jaani Peuhu (Swallow The Sun, Mercury Circle). Jaani did the vocal production on »Winter’s Kiss«, and lent his voice for many of the harmonies heard on the song. The video was made in it’s entirety by Hanging Garden’s Toni Hatakka and Nino Hynninen starring the talented Vera Schneider.”
