Pothamus release new music video for ‘Zhikarta’

POTHAMUS have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Zhikarta, is taken from the Belgian psychedelic sludge metal band’s upcoming new album, Abur, which is scheduled to be released in February next year, via Pelagic Records.

Speaking about the new song and its accompanying music video, the band shares, “Zhikarta is a profound exploration of seeking wisdom and uncovering deeper truths beyond the constraints of societal norms and agreements. Lyrically, it delves into the human longing for insight, urging listeners to peer beyond the veil of conventions. Musically, the track heralds a new chapter for us, weaving together a rich tapestry of sound that evolves across its structure.

The video is equally captivating. Renowned Belgian dancer and performer Jaouad Alloul takes centre stage, bringing his evocative artistry. Alloul not only stars in the video but also crafted a choreography that beautifully aligns with the song’s conceptual essence, translating its themes of seeking wisdom and breaking through conventions into compelling physical movement.”
