Black Orchid Empire release new music video for ‘My Favourite Stranger’
BLACK ORCHID EMPIRE have released a brand new music video!
The new music video, for the track My Favourite Stranger, is taken from the band’s upcoming new album Yugen which is scheduled to be released next week! Speaking about the new song and its accompanying music video, vocalist/guitarist Paul Visser says, “the video for My Favourite Stranger is a different feel for us – we really wanted a clean, colourful approach rather than the darker, grittier look of most of our other videos. We found a really cool new studio in Brixton under a railway arch and Canty from Dark North did an awesome job once again. We had a great time jumping around to our own song while he worked his magic! This song is about a friend of mine going through relationship hell. It’s about two people that are talking their situation over, but too much ground has opened up between them to even understand each other any more. They know each other inside and out, but have ended up total strangers. Musically it’s super fun to play – Dave‘s bass riff is just ridiculous.”
