Stengah release new music video for ‘At The Behest Of Origins’

STENGAH have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track At The Behest Of Origins, is the brand new single from the French tech-metal band and follows on from the release of their debut single, Above Humanity, which was released back in October.

The new music video stars Pascal Duquenne, an actor with down syndrome, well known for his prominent role in the French-Belgian movie Le Huitième Jour from which he won a Cesar in 1996. Alongside him is Aliashka Hilsum, a French-Russian “poly-artist”, dancer, musician, actor, and writer. The video follows a man who wakes washed up at the sea edge. The viewer proceeds to observe a ‘conversation’ with a woman as his inner self as they share enigmatic messages and dialogue in a language that is only available as a related poem hosted on the band’s website.

Speaking about the new music video, drummer Eliott Williame says, “he talks to her (and so to himself) in a dialogue that we can only read in the poem. It is an inner conversation. The thing to understand about this video is that there is only one person. The woman is more like a mirror to him.”

Continuing to talk about the band’s sound, Williame continues, “the music is about (re)connecting with yourself. It’s about people, their fears, their faiths and their philosophies. How sometimes those things can guide them, and how sometimes they can blind them. It asks, with no judgement, about how odd and how strange the social and emotional behaviours of human beings are. It’s all about the power to believe, in creativity, and in consciousness.”
