Once again, doom metal wizards AVATARIUM are set to mesmerize fans with their new dark gospel titled »The Fire I Long For,« which will see the light of day on November 22nd through Nuclear Blast. Today the band unveils another new track off their new record in the form of an acoustic performance video for 'Lay Me Down.' Check it out over on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8HBmtpIedAw
Guitarist Marcus Jidell says on the video, "This song was inspired by late sixties bands such as THE DOORS and CROSBY, STILLS & NASH. We recorded this version a few days ago when having a break from promotional work for our new album. Playing music in this simple way without thunderous drums and big guitars is another passion of ours. That being said, the album version is a different beast altogether."
