Progressive metal innovators Wind Down have unleashed the official music video for “Without Doubt And Illusion”—a hauntingly introspective track from their highly anticipated concept album, The Burning Past, set for release on April 18, 2025, via Wormholedeath Records.

“Without Doubt and Illusion” takes you on a powerful introspective journey, where silence and solitude lead to a profound self-realization. The track explores themes of breaking free from past doubts and misconceptions, confronting uncertainty, and ultimately seeing things as they truly are. As the fog of illusion lifts, the protagonist embraces clarity, shedding old beliefs and discovering a new truth within themselves.

The Burning Past: A Concept Album Ignited by Ancient Wisdom

Wind Down’s debut album is a bold narrative steeped in Native American traditions and shamanic rituals, exploring themes of rebirth, ancestral memory, and the cyclical nature of truth. Tracks like “Without Doubt And Illusion” showcase their self-coined “Progressive Groove Metal” sound—a fusion of polyrhythmic precision, soaring melodies, and seismic riffs that bridge the cerebral and the primal.
