Leprous have released a fast-paced video for their brand new track Illuminate exclusively with Prog.

It’s the latest song taken from the Norwegian outfit’s upcoming fifth studio album Malina which is set to arrive on August 25 via InsideOut Music.

It follows promos for Stuck and From The Flame which have both been released over the last few months.

The video was shot recently in Romania and directed by Costin Chioreanu from Twilight 13 Media.

The band say: “Illuminate is one of the most groovy songs we’ve ever made! It’s the Leprous people know, but in a fresh version. The abstract and dark video from Costin underlines the atmosphere of the song perfectly.”

The band have lined up a European tour in support of Malina which gets under way in Copenhagen on October 28. Find a full list of tour dates below, along with the album artwork and tracklist.

Malina is now available for pre-order.
