Watch Trail of Dead's Occult-Themed New Video for "All Who Wander" |
...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead have made a new video for "All Who Wander" off 2020's X: The Godless Void and Other Stories, and it's a sepia-toned clip that splices together performance footage with scenes from a hedonistic occult party, as Jason Reece explains: "It is a vision quest, A fever dream of sorts. A shadowy figure wanders the shadow plane and stumbles upon a hedonistic occult who seem to be having a really good time with a wonderful meal of amazing delights and flowing wine. ‘Do you have love for the creatures of the night?’ begs the question. The answer is to be found somewhere on this journey. Directed by our own Conrad Keely, it is a Jodorowskyian moment of time warping. Be kind rewind." John Aymong, who edited the video, adds, "For this video, I used disparate video footage shot by the band at various points of production for X: the Godless Void. I selected and treated moments to fit the tone and timing of each song section. My process provided points at which the viewer can form narrative strands. However, as the spirit of the original filming was about capturing visual motifs that resonated with the overall album, I also wanted to leave things open enough so that the imagery could simply be enjoyed as a lyrical flow." The video premieres below. As mentioned, Trail of Dead are doing a West Coast tour in December with support from Death Valley Girls. All dates and tickets here. |

…And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead announced a December headline tour earlier this fall with Death Valley Girls as main support. The upcoming trek will be the band’s first US tour since their world tour celebrating their 25-year anniversary and critically acclaimed 10th studio album X: The Godless Void and Other Stories (January 2020/Dine Alone Records) got cut short due to the pandemic. X: The Godless Void and Other Stories was the band’s first new full-length studio release in six years and was met with raves from the press. Pitchfork called the LP, “…a true revelation from a band 25 years into the game…” and the Austin American Statesman added that The Godless Void is “…their catchiest and most tuneful in forever, an obvious highlight of their now-25-year career.” PREMIERGuitar gave the album a Spotlight Review, writing “Godless Void combines post-punk angst and remarkable musicality akin to T.o.D’s own influences, Rush and Sonic Youth, and matches it with spirited urgency” and Kerrang! gave it a 4/5 rating, saying, “Texas alt-rock legends …Trail Of Dead return, as spiky and brilliant as ever.” Confirmed dates are below, purchase tickets HERE and for the most up-to-date info, please visit https://www.trailofdead.com/. |
