Gong release new music video for ‘Stars In Heaven’

GONG have released a brand new music video!

The video is for the track Stars In Heaven, which is the first single lifted from the legendary psych rock band’s upcoming album Bright Spirit, scheduled to be released in 2026 via Kscope. The record promises to be the most colourful and kaleidoscopic offering yet from this incarnation of the band. More information about the upcoming album will be unveiled in due course.

Speaking about the album, singer and guitarist Kavus Torabi says, “it’s such an eclectic record. This is the most colourful and kaleidoscopic album so far from this incarnation of the band. There are Eastern-infused epics, long instrumental jazz-inspired sections, meditative and cosmic detours and blistering, incendiary psychedelic rock. When picking the first song to be released, it has felt as if there’s an extra weight on the choice, as if the song somehow has to represent the whole album.”

He continues, “if you are a cynical, defensive or suspicious person, then that’s the world you’ll inhabit. You’ll see mean-spirited behaviour and selfishness all around you but it’s always a choice. I think perhaps some people forget that. That’s not the world I live in, nor would I want to. It’s a sad old world for sure but it’s also a beautiful one bursting with hope, possibility, wonder and magic in every single moment.”
