The lyrics depict a society that falls under the spell of a hellish deity; a cult leader spinning a web of mass destruction and fear, rendering the entire group subservient and powerless.
“In all the world, there’s no escape from this infernal din,” says Greep.
“It’s easy to get wrapped up in the improvisation myth of divine intervention, that if a song doesn’t happen in the room naturally without it being guided by someone specifically, when we’re all just feeling the vibe, then it’s not proper and it’s not pure.
That’s kind of a dangerous thing because you end up never trying something different, or you just abandon an idea if it doesn’t work out at first, because you’re always waiting for that thing to arrive perfect.”
The video, directed by Nina McNeely, is a batshit psychedelic homage to Fritz Lang’s Metropolis, 2001: A Space Odyssey…and quite possibly, the Teletubbies?
You’re going to have to sit down for this one. The stunning Busby Berkley-meets-The Lorax choreography and striking visuals, mixed with the droll snarl of Geordie Greep is truly a sight to behold.
