Sons Of Raphael announce debut album with opening song "Revolution"
Sons of Raphael, aka brothers Loral and Ronnel Raphael, have returned with news of their debut album Full-Throated Messianic Homage, which is accompanied by the opening track "Revolution".
"Revolution" is the duo's first outing of 2021, following last year's "Siren Music" single, which will feature on their debut album alongside "He Who Makes The Morning Darkness".
The duo say of their new single, "The wild horse of revolution is called for as we try to liberate ourselves from a future morally-oppressive society ‘where killers and messiahs are identical twins’. That blood is thicker than water, my brother and I have learnt in the seven years of famine making this album. As it is written in The Book of Proverbs: ‘A friend loves at all times but a brother is born to help when trouble comes’; this is the nerve centre of our new music video for "Revolution". It captures ‘how good and how pleasant it is when brothers dwell together in unity."
Video director WIZ adds, "I am not interested in deconsecrating: this is a fashion I hate, it is petit-bourgeois. I want to reconsecrate things as much as possible, I want to re-mythicize them." - Cherished words from the great poet and filmmaker Pier Paolo Pasolini. A guiding edict for WIZ and The Sons of Raphael."
