Trevor’s Head release new music video for ‘Under My Skin’
TREVOR’S HEAD have released a new music video!
The new music video, for the track Under My Skin, is taken from the the stoner/punk/metal band’s upcoming album A View From Below, which is scheduled to be released in May this year via APF Records.
Speaking about the new song, vocalist/guitarist Roger Atkins explains that it is “a song about teenage love, lust and murder. The verse and chorus riffs just kind of fell out during a jam one day and lent themselves to a creepy, staccato vocal style, so I ran with that and started writing a twisted set of lyrics. I’ve always been inspired by storytellers like Johnny Cash and David Bowie, so it was a cool experience writing fiction for this one, rather than something introspective or commenting on society. From there, the lyrics and music feed off each other through the story until the climax. It was a really satisfying process watching it all come together like that because lyrics can be really fucking hard to write when the music is already finished.
But of course, we’re TREVOR’S HEAD and we don’t like to take ourselves too seriously, so the video is an absolute piss-take. We took inspiration from bands like IMMORTAL, donning corpse paint and running around in the woods, acting like fools. There’s even a super scary demon! It was an absolute riot to shoot. Luckily, our videographer pal Dan Blanchard was able to put a plot to the japery so the video has a narrative of its own. Honestly, watching the first cut had us rolling on the floor laughing, so we hope you enjoy it just as much!”
