Black Sun - Slay the Queen (Official Music Video)


Black Sun is an Ecuadorian-Finnish melodic heavy metal band founded in Ecuador by Nicolas Estrada (drums), Christopher Grünberg (guitar), and Santiago Salem (bass).

The band collaborated with Finnish producer/mixing engineer and Thunderstone guitarist Nino Laurenne (Amorphis, Lost Society, The Rasmus). Netta Laurenne (Smackbound, Laurenne/Louhimo) also joined the band as lead singer.  

The first track from our upcoming album with a reformed lineup is "Slay The Queen".
It was published on March 26th and is a song that blends all of the components of Black Sun's music with crunchy guitars, powerful vocals, and catchy choruses.

Slay the Queen is a story about time ruling over people's lives and the wish to stop its reign. In our society, we are forced to obey this chosen, structured perception of time that doesn't allow us the freedom so often needed to live a life truest to ourselves.” comments Netta.

The video is amazingly made and very engaging and the song is pure quality from every point of view, performance, production and arrangement. Catchy vocal lines (the chorus is fantastic), energetic and punchy, dynamic and tasty rhythm section and great riffs. A great song, give it a go and follow Black Sun on social media as well.
