Job For A Cowboy release new music video for ‘Beyond The Chemical Doorway’
JOB FOR A COWBOY have released a new music video!
The new music video, for the track Beyond The Chemical Doorway, is taken from the Arizona-based death metal band’s upcoming new album, Moon Healer, which is scheduled to be released in February this year.
Speaking about the new song, frontman Jonny Davy says, “I envision this as a death metal album born from the mystical confines of an alchemist’s laboratory. The music acts as potent potions, inducing hallucinogenic journeys that unlock the secrets of the universe.”
With Beyond The Chemical Doorway, Davy explores Gnosticism – an occult teaching based on Gnosis, a state of transcendence achieved through intuitive, unconventional means – by way of Hieronymus Bosch’s art. Elaborates Davy, “on Moon Healer, we unravel the dismal narrative of a close friend consumed by an unwavering pursuit of enlightenment. They achieve this through a compulsive embrace of hallucinogenic drugs. This storyline emerges from the foundation set in our earlier album, Sun Eater, delving deeper into the intricacies brewing within our friend’s psyche.
When under the influence of these drugs, this individual claimed to encounter entities and find themselves in indescribable worlds that defy rational comprehension. Many who undergo such experiences draw intriguing parallels between diverse facets of Gnostic philosophy, biblical depictions of angels, and the stages of Bardo Thodol delineated in the Tibetan Book Of The Dead. In the album’s opener, Beyond The Chemical Doorway, our friend vividly voices his hallucinations, recounting the experience of breaching forbidden, gnostic-like realms, with each account culminating in the utter unraveling of his being.”
