Vision Divine Release '18 (It Feels Like Heaven)' Video and Announce 'A Clockwork Reverie' EP

Vision Divine have released the video for “18 (It Feels Like Heaven)”, the first single from their upcoming EP “A Clockwork Reverie”, scheduled for release on May 22 via Scarlet Records, as we reported on Rockum some time ago regarding the band’s reunion with Michele Luppi and Oleg Smirnoff.

The video was directed by Marco Falanga and Beatrice Demori (Oround) and presents a narrative centered on a man who encounters a mysterious figure connected to an event that was meant to occur eighteen years earlier.

The concept follows a sequence that moves between dream and reality, as the encounter appears to repeat beyond the initial vision.

“A Clockwork Reverie” marks the first release following the return of vocalist Michele Luppi and keyboardist Oleg Smirnoff.

The EP was produced by Olaf Thorsen and Michele Luppi, mixed by Simone Mularoni and Michele Luppi at Domination Studio, and mastered by Michele Luppi at MiLu’s RockLab II.

The artwork was created by Augusto Silva.
