Je kent ze wel, zo van die muzikanten/bands die je absoluut wil supporten en toch vindt je geen enkele collega die iets met de muziek kan. Dan maar zelf aanpakken en de taal van de muziek laten spreken, want dat Tom De Wit hier met een erg ambitieus project uitpakt, daar kunnen we niet omheen. Je houdt van symfonische prog met een hoog theatraal (narratief expressief) karakter, dan kan dit wel eens jouw ding zijn.
The Days The Clock Stopped verschijnt op 27 november in eigen beheer.
Luister ook naar: Death and Her Brother Greg
Noteer! Mis zeker de documentaire niet die tevens op vrijdag 27 november in première gaat op Youtube!

Here is what Tom had to say regarding this video release: “This song is one of the heavier and more intense pieces on this album. And that is for a good reason: This song literally describes the night in which I almost lost everything and had a near-death experience due to a surgery that was not executed properly. This is reflected in the way the music twists and turns and the dissonance that takes place.
The concept of this album is a first person experience through my mind and body as I was attacked by a severe bowel disease called Colitis Ulcerosa and what that did to me when I was in the hospital in my early 20s. This song represents one of my lowest points and the darkness that I experienced up close.”
It’s a heavy, frantic ride that shifts it’s dynamics through fastpaced riffs, dissonant breakdowns and multiple vocal styles. This video features the appearances of: Rich Gray (Annihilator, Aeon Zen), Remco Woutersen, Koen ‘Vuurdichter’ Romeijn (Heidevolk, Detonation), Iris van ‘t Veer, Ron Brouwer (Sacrosanct), Laura ten Hoedt (LadyLau, The Civilized), Abraham Sarache, Stan Eimers & Rikke Linssen (Pyrolysis).
