Following the release of Liminal Spaces via Rockshots Records, Italian progressive metal act Beriedir unveils the official music video for “Burnout”, the album’s emotional centerpiece.
Musically and lyrically, “Burnout” captures the very essence of the record. A song about mental exhaustion, the crushing weight of self-imposed pressure, and the relentless cycle of overexertion, “Burnout” blends technical complexity with emotional immediacy. The track opens with hammering rhythmic patterns and aggressive riffs before collapsing into a fragile, almost sobbing pause culminating in a melodic death-inspired finale of overwhelming intensity.
“Filling all the time we have, keeping the furnace burning as everything gets consumed. Writing page after page, until something breaks. Silence falls in an instant, like the noises in the forest when a predator is present. But the only threat to us, in the solitude of sleepless nights, is ourselves. The cycle never stops: our mind becomes incandescent, works non-stop, then burns out. Then it starts again.”
The band comments: “’Burnout’ is a vocal and instrumental challenge in every aspect. It’s the most representative track of “Liminal Spaces”, where every musical choice mirrors the content of the lyrics. It’s hard to stay emotionally untouched while playing it.”
The official music video, directed once again by Luca Rapuzzi, visually amplifies the tension and vulnerability expressed in the track. Through stark and immersive imagery, Rapuzzi brings the song’s inner conflict and emotional unraveling to life, reinforcing “Burnout” as the album’s defining statement.
With Liminal Spaces, Beriedir has taken a bold step away from their power metal roots to fully embrace a progressive, melancholic, and immersive sound. The album explores trauma, nostalgia, longing, and emotional fragmentation, offering a listening experience that resonates deeply with those navigating dark and complex emotional states.
The band’s stylistic shift is both natural and deliberate, shaped by years of personal growth and sonic exploration. As frontman and primary songwriter, Stefano Nusperli explains, it all began with a USB drive full of music from bands like Vision Divine, Dream Theater, Dark Tranquillity, and Children Of Bodom — a discovery that sparked the initial flame of Beriedir and ultimately led to Liminal Spaces.
Now, with a more collaborative approach and a renewed focus on progressive and alternative metal, Beriedir’s sound draws comparisons to Pain Of Salvation, Leprous, Katatonia, Gojira, Trivium, and Dark Tranquillity. The album was mixed and mastered by Simone Mularoni at Domination Studio, ensuring a sonic depth that matches its lyrical weight
