Since several unauthorized versions of Italian sensation LACUNA COIL’s brand-new video “Spellbound” have been circulating on the web, Century Media Records has now officially launched the standard and performance only version of the clip in high quality at YouTube.
Commented LACUNA COIL vocalist Cristina Scabbia:
"We had a great time shooting the video for “Spellbound” and it also marks our first time working with acclaimed Italian director Saku in a location that's really peculiar. It was filmed in a very fashionable place: the restaurant Gold located in Milan, Italy, which is owned by the fashion designers Dolce & Gabbana, who kindly gave us the permission to film over there! The location provides the perfect atmosphere to express the 'Shallow Life' theme. Everything is really shiny and 'bling bling' and the band is performing in the middle of a golden room full of mirrors and giant chandeliers. The story is rounded out by some actors that are interpreting different aspects of being under a spell of something: the girl obsessed by her weight and look, the guy who wants to be a superman, the politician etc."
“Spellbound” is now available as digital download single in Europe, UK, and Australia!
LACUNA COIL will release its much-anticipated new album, "Shallow Life", via Century Media Records on the following dates:
GERMANY / AUSTRIA / SWITZERLAND / BENELUX / ITALY:Friday, April 17, 2009.

The band is currently touring the US on the “Music As A Weapon IV” tour and will return to European stages during this year’s festival season!
