Avantasia – unveil new single/video ‘The Witch’ feat. Kamelot’s Tommy Karevik

Leading rock and metal band AVANTASIA have unveiled the third new single from their highly anticipated 10th studio album, Here Be Dragons, entitled The Witch. The powerful new anthem features guest vocals from Kamelot singer Tommy Karevik and cinematic dark soundscapes that perfectly support the storyline. The Witch arrives with a spellbinding official music video, enhancing the mysterious, ghostly atmosphere of the song to mesmerise the listener.

Frontman Tobias Sammet comments, “’The Witch’ is a dark and enchanting song that carries many traditional Avantasia trademarks, and yet it has a sinister and magical mood that I think is somehow new in the world of Avantasia, while it perfectly blends with the rest of the album. Tommy Karevik of Kamelot did a wonderful job on this one and I can’t wait to sing this song with Tommy on our forthcoming tour. We’ll bring the great stage setting to turn the stage into the ghost infested old castle resembling the ancient building which we shot the stunning video clip for the track at. It’s a beautiful track, powerful, anthemic, melodic and full of eerie little details. I am extremely proud of the song and the whole album.”
