Venezuelan atmospheric death/doom metallers Stratuz release new music video for »Morning Star«!

Venezuelan atmospheric death/doom metallers Stratuz have released new music video for »Morning Star« taken from their latest album, »Osculum Pacis«, which will be reissued in CD format via Wormholedeath.

“»Morning Star« refers to the first light we see at dawn, that first star reminding us that the first light of the day reaches the spiritually higher men first, just like the last light of the day.

»Morning Star« represents Lucifer as the bringer of light. Light as knowledge. He is the bringer of light on our planet both in the material and spiritual way, and it’s in the hands of each to find their own light and understanding to wake up from so many layers of lies set through time.”

Stratuz emerged onto the metal scene in 1984 and quickly solidified their position as Venezuela’s most revered metal band. Their debut album, »In Nomine…« released in 1995, catapulted them to recognition and acclaim. Following a triumphant European tour in 1999, they signed with LSP-Company and released »Spirit Seduction«, which marked a new chapter in their musical journey. After a hiatus, the band reunited in 2019, pouring their passion into the creation of »Osculum Pacis«, which was unleashed upon the world in 2022. The album garnered international praise, securing the top spot on the Jacquin Ravens Top 50 Metal chart and earning accolades as the best work of 2022 by esteemed journalist Roberto Palmitesta and Metal Pedia.

The line-up of Stratuz consists of Franklin Berroterán on voices and keyboards, Gerónimo Egea on guitars, Leonardo Rangel on bass, and Diego Cabrujas on drums. Together, they channel their collective musical prowess to forge a sound that captivates and enchants.
