SikTh release new music video for ‘Behind The Doors’

SIKTH have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Behind The Doors, originally featured on the UK progressive metal band’s 2015 EP Opacities, and will be played live for the very first time when the band tour the UK in November for their special reunion shows.

The new music video was inspired by vocalist Mikee Goodman‘s experience with depression as the video depicts a search for light through the darkness. Speaking about the song and its accompanying music video, vocalist Mikee Goodman says, Behind The Doors goes between a medically induced world into a world of darkness and depression, a feeling of hopelessness and longing. I personally feel while we can we should always try to find the colour through the grey, the light through darkness, although, some days it can be easier said than done. We keep trying. Positive thinking is so important in our lives.”

I am really happy with the video which Davie from 12 Inch Media created. I called him up and explained what the song was about, then a few days later I received this. Going between bright coloured psychedelic themes to the grey and mundane, on a journey through doors into different realms of the mind, it’s metaphorically somewhat of a visual portrayal of how powerful our minds are and how vicious the struggle between light and dark thoughts can be as they play out in our heads.”
