Ultimatium - (Don't) Fear the Silence (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO) (featuring Emily Leone in vocals)

Below is a new video for the ballad "(Don't) Fear the Silence" by the melodic band Ultimatium from Finland. The song is from the 2020 album Virtuality. For your information, here is also another song that perhaps helps to paint a more whole picture of the sound of the band, "Run Like The Wind." Of course, this is a band for fans of the melodic sounds, first and foremost. YouTube has the following information about the album Virtuality.
The following information is from YouTube:
8th track of the epic progpower metal opera Virtuality, featuring Emily Leone in vocals
"(Don't) Fear the Silence is the most beautiful and saddest song on the album. Heroes have lost one of their own and they must say goodbyes in order to prepare for the final battle against the villain... This song is the first acoustic ballad from Ultimatium, with the ending chorus bringing in all the instruments. Listeners beware: the song features a sudden, hidden bass solo!" Ultimatium was birthed out the deep forests of Suomussalmi, Finland. Their 4th studio full-length "Virtuality" follows their independently released "Vis Vires Infinitus" (2015), "New Dawn" (2004, Mastervox Records), and "Hwainoo" (2008, Mastervox Records).
The premise behind "Virtuality" is an introduction of a storyline of four gamers getting stuck in a virtual reality game in a near-future setting. Packed with five amazing lead vocalists, Peter James Goodman (Conquest, ex-Virtuocity), Jukka Nummi (ex-Myon), Emily Leone, Tomi Viiltola (ex-Dreamtale, Perpetual Rage, Viilto) and Matti Auerkallio (Katra, Manzana, SoulFallen), "Virtuality" is a unique storyline about the virtual world, and the dangers of sharing everything in social media, along with up-tempo power metal songs combined with darker elements.
The story album is backed up with lots of background vocals, sound effects and a "narrator"/system voice synthesized with Amazon's Alexa.
The album introduces the best parts of power and progressive metal combined, including easier up-tempo songs, but also long, progressive mid-tempo tracks. The songs take influence from such bands as Stratovarius, Dream Theater, Symphony X and Rainbow. Especially on tracks "Digital Tower" and "Ghost of Yesterday" where influences from Ronnie James Dio and Ritchie Blackmore are easily heard.
