Nine Treasures - Seeking the Absolute

Buy here: http://www.metalblade.com/ninetreasures In a groundbreaking creative step, the band partnered with Matthew Medney and Alex Kane of GUNGNIR to incorporate animation drawn directly from the fourth-coming installment of the official Nine Treasures comic series. The “Seeking The Absolute” music video seamlessly blends live performance with stylized sequences pulled from the comic’s visual mythology—merging art, music, story, and culture into one unified expression. The animated moments don’t just accompany the track; they expand the band’s world, bringing Mongolian folklore, spiritual symbolism, and progressive-metal energy to life in a bold new medium. This cross-media approach marks the first time NINE TREASURES has intertwined their musical narrative with their visual storytelling, building a fully connected artistic universe spanning albums, comics, and now animation. Formed by vocalist/guitarist Askhan in 2010 in the autonomous region of Inner Mongolia in China, NINE TREASURES delivers a unique combination of heavy metal and traditional Mongolian instrumentation, utilizing both conventional vocals and Mongolian throat singing. Guitars, bass, and drums collide with indigenous string instruments including the balalaika and the morin khuur (horsehead fiddle), resulting in a sonic kaleidoscope that follows no set template. Playing 100-plus festival shows and headlining gigs per year in Asia, to audiences of up to 50,000, and with four albums to their name, NINE TREASURES are at the top of their proverbial game and ready to conquer North America.
