The work of Mägo de Oz: lose the video clip of a song for having only a backup copy

Wizard of Oz, puntal group of Spanish heavy, publishes a new album this Friday, the fourteenth of its long career. Since announcing their latest musical project, the band, famous for iconic anthems like Pagan party, has been taking several previews of the songs that will make up Black flag, whose launch had already been delayed due to pandemic issues.

One of the most anticipated topics was that of The lady of the sea. Mägo de Oz had announced through its social networks that the single would be released with a video clip on September 5 at 11:58 p.m. However, plans went awry a few days earlier. The group reported on the 3rd through its social networks that it had lost the images of the short film, and that it was forced to publish a a lyrics video. The problem? A single backup and a damaged hard drive.

“They have been days of titanic attempts to recover some images, which finally they have not been able to restore even 30%, because the hard disk is badly damaged and practically all the images have been lost, “said the band through a joint statement with Warner Music Spain. A real chore.” We apologize and hope your understanding in the face of such fateful problem, “they assured their fans.

Despite the disappointment of not being able to count on the video clip, the song has been very well received by the followers of Mägo de Oz. In just twelve hours, The lady of the sea reached more than 100,000 views. The heavy band has two record signings scheduled for Saturday September 11 in Madrid and A Coruña.

The music for this song has been composed by Txus, Moha, Patri, Víctor de Andrés, Seoane and Javi Zeta and aims to be one of the most commercial of the album. It narrates the utopian idyll between a pirate and a mermaid and has catchy rhymes: “A thousand wet kisses, drowned in the sea, / his mouth is a cemetery, a reef grave and salt. / The coast is his destination, freedom beach, / beware of her or tonight you will die. “
