La banda Breforth ha publicado su nuevo sencillo y video musical titulado “Colombian Hills”, que ya se encuentra disponible. El lanzamiento forma parte del proceso de grabación de su segundo álbum de estudio, cuya publicación está prevista para finales de 2027. La pista ha sido descrita como un tema de heavy metal que toma influencias musicales de principios de los años ochenta.
La inspiración detrás de “Colombian Hills”
El guitarrista y miembro fundador, Jürgen Breforth, explicó la historia detrás de la creación de este nuevo tema: “Just like in a fairy tale, that’s exactly how I felt in 2023 when I got to play my first shows in Colombia with MAD MAX. The stories and encounters I experienced there have stayed with me to this day”.
El músico añadió detalles sobre el proceso creativo: “Of course, the comic about the story of MAD MAX (the very first comic about a heavy metal band ever in Colombia) holds a very special place in my heart—it would never have seen the light of day without those 2023 concerts. Naturally, I hope for all these adventures for BREFORTH as well, and we’re working hard to make that dream a reality”.
Respecto a la composición, Jürgen Breforth señaló: “When it came time to write songs for the new BREFORTH album and the first single, it was immediately clear to me that the new song had to be about Colombia. Everyone in the band was instantly enthusiastic about the idea. The lyrics and cover art are entirely autobiographical and capture exactly what I experienced: amazing concerts with enthusiastic fans, long car rides, exotic landscapes, incredibly friendly people, and a very special energy”.
El guitarrista también mencionó las influencias sonoras de la agrupación: “The song radiates this energy and brings together all the musical influences that define BREFORTH. For me, it all started with bands like the early JUDAS PRIEST, IRON MAIDEN, and SAXON: heavy guitar riffs, two-part guitar duels, and, above all, an unmistakably charismatic voice. “Colombian Hills” brings all of that together, making it, for me, the perfect signature song for this new chapter of BREFORTH”.
En cuanto al apartado visual, el baterista y director creativo Arne Fleischhut desarrolló un concepto animado. Según explicó el guitarrista: “Inspired by the MAD MAX comic, though, it was immediately clear that everyone in the band now wanted a BREFORTH comic as the video for “Colombian Hills.” Our drummer and creative director, Arne Fleischhut, developed a great fantasy comic story—spiced, of course, with a dash of humor. There are lots of cool little details about the band to discover”.
La formación actual de Breforth está integrada por Peter Lenzschau en la voz, Jürgen Breforth y Erik Blumenthal en las guitarras, Jens Lükermann en el bajo y Arne Fleischhut en la batería. Su álbum debut titulado “Metal In My Heart” se encuentra disponible a través de Fireflash Records.
