About 'The Long Road North' game , by North Kingdom Greenhouse :
"The music video for Cold Burn is directed and produced by Noth Kingdom Greenhouse.
We have done many music video projects over the years, always aiming to find a unique angle.
With the brief we got from the band, we saw an attractive creative opportunity to explore what we believe will be the future of music video creation-combining music with real-time technology and interactive storytelling.
The video for Cold Burn will be followed by an immersive game experience where fans can immerse themselves in this unique visual world we created for the album called 'The Long Road North'
Building the experience in Unreal Engine allows us to invite fans as the hero of the story to explore the music video in their unique way.
The song is adaptive to how you navigate the world, so every time you play the music video game, you will get a different experience.
The project is an innovative collaboration between Cult Of Luna, North Kingdom, and Arctic Game Lab, and developed by a team of game designers, 3D artists, and musicians in the north of Sweden."
Linus Johansson
Lyrics :
Breathe into the harrowing wind.
To uncover truths hidden by snow.
Melting water cleanses the ground.
Breathe into the freezing haze.
The cold burns like salt in a wound.
Howl. Your skull is screaming.
The sky darkens. Visions dragged from light.
Ice pierces your skin. Carving words from within.
Pain moves through every vein.
Frost covers figures. Too dim for you to see.
Years go by faster. Seasons no longer hold their line.
From its den under the mountain. Wings spread out across the night.
The cold burns.

With this video I finally understood why I like Cult of Luna so much: the musical development is spread throughout the time usually suitable for 3 tracks, therefore you can watch it unfold slowly, almost like you're watching it from a distance. It's a meditation in audible form, because during meditation you watch your thoughts instead of letting them rush through. And I get why there are people that don't like it - they want the development itself in 4 minutes or less, not to watch it and definitely not to think about it. But it makes people that appreciate bands like Cult of Luna that much more valuable. In people I know personally there are none of those.

Post Metal (particularly COL) is a journey. Sometimes through space, or time, or through end times. I think you need to be the kind of person who sees the climbing of the mountain and the euphoria of reaching the top as one of the same to appreciate this kind of music. I still re-listen to Leave Me Here every so often, and get the same story in my head of a man running to see the world over, waiting to be swept away by it's currents. Cygnus a song about reaching the end of the galaxy and escaping our own planet’s destruction so humans can survive. This song about entering a new frontier like the pioneers of yore leaving the ice age and forging civilization through an audous journey filled with pitfalls. They're all around that central theme of overcoming insurmountable obstacles to get to the top....whatever that top may be.

Thank you Cult Of Luna.

I find that CoL have taken their time in exploring, expanding, and experimenting with their sound. They have core elements but every album has something a little different they explore- like the industrial on Vertikal. Then they incorporate aspects of it into their album. This, IMO, had resulted in them being one of the best metal acts today.
