Trub, Switzerland-based hard rock group Shakra have filmed a music video for the track \u2018Cassandra\u2019s Curse\u2019, which can be viewed below.<\/p>\n

Guitarist Thomas Muster commented: \u201c\u2018Cassandra\u2019s Curse\u2019 was the first song I wrote for Snakes & Ladders<\/em>. It\u2019s about the curse of Cassandra, from the Greek mythology. The lady was cursed because she always knew what the future held, but no one believed her. You can translate that pretty well into the present day: There are presidents, dictators and politicians in general who tell us how we gotta live our lives, even though there are other people who are simply not heard, but who might know better how to solve the world\u2019s problems.\u201d<\/p>\n

Shakra issue 11th full-length studio album Snakes & Ladders<\/em> on November 10th, 2017 through AFM Records.<\/p>\n

The track listing is as follows;<\/p>\n
