Accompanying the song\u2019s release is a music video directed by Claudio Marino, which you can check out below.<\/p>\n<p>Due for release on June 26 via Prophecy Productions, Ghost of Europa is Mortiis\u2019 first release with the aforementioned label. And while that\u2019s a momentous occasion for any band, Mortiis explained that this song is actually a reflection of a difficult time with his spouse.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLyrically, \u2018Violent Silence\u2019 came into being as an apology to my wife. I had done something stupid again, and she was really upset. I was trying to apologise in a text message \u2013 a really long one. The lyrics for \u2018Violent Silence\u2019 took a lot of inspiration from those words and that moment. As time goes by and having lived with this song for quite a while now, it gets harder for me to listen to those words. The gut-wrenching sensation of guilt never goes away fully. Musically, it was a very inspiring song to work on \u2013 especially with all those crazy fuzz and echo guitars that built up this song towards the end.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>Ghosts of Europa\u00a0will be released on June 26, with various versions available at launch.
