Witherfall release new music video for ‘As I Lie Awake’

WITHERFALL have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track As I Lie Awake, is taken from the US dark melodic metallers’ upcoming new album, Curse of Autumn, which is scheduled to be released in March next year, via Century Media Records.

The new song’s accompanying music video was directed by the renown director Zev Deans who didn’t just do spectacular videos for the likes of GHOST, BEHEMOTH or CHELSEA WOLFE, but also DENZEL CURRY and ST. VINCENT.

Speaking about the new song and its accompanying music video, the band says, “As I Lie Awake is the catchiest WITHERFALL song to date. It was created with much arguing and loud drunken chicanery. Early on the band and producer Jon Schaffer agreed that this should be the lead single. Director Zev Deans who had directed GHOST’s Dance Macabre was enlisted for the job and the video for As I Lie Awake features a great Lost Boys styled treatment. Thanks again to Duffs in Brooklyn, we didn’t mean to spill blood and wine on your carpet…”

Director Zev Deans adds, “when Joseph sent me the song, it immediately transported me to an era when both heavy metal and horror movies were all about sex, blood and ultimately, a good time! Movies like The Lost Boys were in the movie theaters and long-format music videos like Thriller were on MTV.”
