I'm not sure how much the video influences how much I like the song, but the song is definitely great

Been waiting for this :)

Another example of a band that's great, but manages to be even better live.

Probably more into the direction of old school hair metal, but a very entertaining video

Very impressed with these guys, they remind me of the old Slipknot but with a more modern sound, and they've been releasing absolute bangers

Check out the other songs, I tried to combine them in a playlist, some still seem to be missing on their channel though:

The song "Imperatorė" (engl. "Empress") is inspired by the story of the ancient Egyptian queen Cleopatra. This figure is portrayed as a charming, wise, and simultaneously indomitable character who is able to shape her own destiny and assert her power. The story of the song is also accompanied by flowers commonly found in Lithuania , named "Aconitum", also known as "wolfsbane." These flowers are notable for their bright blue petals and are often found in Lithuanian gardens. However, few people know that these flowers are among the most poisonous in the world, capable of fatally paralyzing the nervous system. It is believed that Cleopatra grew these flowers in her garden and used them to poison her enemies, including her two younger brothers, who later became her husbands.
