KAELIS will premiere their official video for “Bring Me to Life” on 9 November 2026 at 21:00. The Seville, Spain symphonic metal band is presenting the song as its own version of Evanescence’s 2003 alternative rock and metal hit, with the digital release scheduled for the band’s official YouTube channel and all digital platforms.

The new interpretation features vocals by Bethany Neumann, who adapted the song to her range. The video moves between two contrasting settings: one uses white clothing, flowers and amber lighting for a warmer atmosphere, while the other uses blue tones, intense lights and a darker, more aggressive presentation. Storm-like lighting effects are used during the choruses.

Two visual worlds for one cover

Neumann directed and edited the video through her creative studio BN · Design, which also produced the audiovisual work. Tristan Ballard operated the camera, while Neumann worked on the lighting, makeup and hair. Manuel Barragán recorded, edited, produced, mixed and mastered the music at El Laboratorio, with Neumann serving as vocal co-producer.

The release follows KAELIS’s 2026 album “Stellar Waves” and the band’s recent video for “Atalaya”, which we covered earlier this year. “Atalaya” was the fifth single from the album and was also directed and edited by BN Design, with production by BN Design and KAELIS and audio work by Barragán at El Laboratorio.

Bethany Neumann brings several projects to KAELIS

Bethany Neumann sings for KAELIS and provides the voice for “Bring Me to Life”. She also directed and edited the new video and took care of its lighting, makeup and hair. Her other projects include Eteddian, Histeria, Silver Moon and Wild Child, alongside her solo work.

KAELIS formed in Seville in 2019 and combines modern metal with orchestral and cinematic influences and science-fiction storytelling. The band has released two full-length works, including “Stellar Waves”, and has shared stages with Celtian, Débler Eternia and Lèpoka.
