It's been 10 years since the Northern Irish rock band released their debut Rise and The Answer are currently getting ready to tour the UK to support the release of their sixth album Solas, which is out October 28 via Napalm Records .

The video for 'Solas' is set in an eerie forest, with ritualistic pagan imagery reflecting the Celtic atmospheres of the song. The sinister, unnerving video is accompanies the lyrical sentiments of this powerful, operatic rock anthem.

In essence, 'Solas' sees the band reach a turning point in their career as they embrace elements of their Celtic background whilst keeping in line with their renowned trademark blues-filled and fiery rock guitar sound.

The band have lined up a string of tour dates for the UK this November but, notably, they will not be coming to Ireland to showcase their new material. With further tour dates set for France and Belgium, it might be a while before we get the chance to see The Answer on home soil again.
