The song is a mix of METALLICA meets Fellini with the video combining classic Roman scenes and Helsinki vampires shot by Finland’s most famous rock and metal photographer Ville Juurikkala (NIGHTWISH, HIM, AMORPHIS).
"The riff smelled a bit like good old METALLICA for me and I mixed it with Paolo Sorrentino's »The Great Beauty« movie in my head, so that's what it's all about. On Saturday afternoon during the midsummer weekend in the last June I recorded all those 12 o'clock church bells at the Capitoline Hill in Rome that you can hear in the beginning of the song, so that adds some Fellini there as well!,” explains singer Jyrki 69 about the song.
