Pre-order:
Bassist Max Portnoy, who also directed the video, said of it:
“‘As fate undoes’ is heavily inspired by old monster movies and 1970s TV shows like Land Of The Lost. We haven’t done a tongue in cheek, humorous video before, but always joked about it, and decided to send it for this single, since it felt right for this song. After making the video, it was probably the most fun we’ve had at a video shoot. And now we have puppets of ourselves, so that’s cool.”
Regarding the song itself, he adds:
“The live strings we recorded for this record are on display prominently with this track. The song was mainly written around this violin melody I wrote one night. Once that idea was cemented, it turned into what I feel is a hit song. It’s got one of the most replayable choruses that makes you want to bounce. It’s fun. It’s dark. It’s very much ‘Tallah’ at our core, all wrapped into 3 minutes.”
