Orchestral score composer Clemens Wijers ( Carach Angren , Lindmann, Pain) comments:
"I had the privilege to compose and produce the orchestral score for the new phenomenal album "The Immortal Wars" by Ex Deo. For me as a composer this was a huge challenge as it pushed me to reinvent myself, surrounded by the great Roman atmosphere that Ex Deo breathes throughout their music. The songs were asking for fierce aggressive orchestrations combined with emotional passages underscoring the narrative throughout. Coming from a background in writing epic and horror oriented orchestral music I was able to leave my signature on this remarkable work. I'm beyond proud of the end result and can't wait until the album is finally out!”
Thanks-Stay Metal, Stay Brutal-\m/ -l-
