VISIONS OF ATLANTIS + SALTATIO MORTIS, RECKLESS SAILOR (BLACK FLAG RISES)
Information Provided By: Atom Splitter PR
Symphonic metal pioneers VISIONS OF ATLANTIS set sail alongside German medieval metal titans SALTATIO MORTIS on the brand-new single "Reckless Sailor (Black Flag Rises)." Reimagining the legendary sea shanty "Drunken Sailor," the track arrives together with an official music video and was created in collaboration with Ubisoft Germany to celebrate the launch of Assassin's Creed™ Black Flag Resynced.
With the unmistakable vocal performances of Clémentine Delauney and Michele Guaitoli, VISIONS OF ATLANTIS bring their signature cinematic symphonic metal spirit to the newly arranged classic. Blending driving guitars with maritime melodies, SALTATIO MORTIS transform the iconic shanty into a powerful anthem of freedom, courage and life beyond convention — an epic musical adventure that perfectly captures the spirit of Assassin's Creed™ Black Flag Resynced.
Following the critically acclaimed albums Pirates (2022) and Pirates II – Armada (2024), VISIONS OF ATLANTIS have firmly established themselves among the leading forces of modern symphonic metal. Their collaboration with SALTATIO MORTIS unites two bands driven by a shared passion for adventure, freedom and captivating storytelling, breathing new life into one of the most iconic sea shanties of all time.
Novacaine Rating: 10/10
"We know VISIONS & SALTATIO can hardly be called 'Rising Underground Artists' anymore. If anything, they're charting a course toward world domination. You could even say they're on the hunt for the One Piece. These are two phenomenal acts, and we'd be honoured to welcome them to a future Novacaine Festival."
"Reckless Sailor (Black Flag) is only a glimpse of what these artists are capable of. VISIONS have already delivered a string of outstanding releases and consistently put on incredible live shows. From everything we've seen and heard, SALTATIO are every bit as impressive. If this collaboration is anything to go by, the future looks incredibly bright for both bands."
