Vodun release new music video for ‘New Doom’
VODUN have released a brand new music video!
The new music video, for the track New Doom, is taken from the band’s upcoming new album Ascend which is scheduled to be released in September.
The new song and its accompanying music video features a cameo from TURBOWOLF‘s frontman Chris Georgiadus and speaking about the track and music video, frontwoman Chantal Brown says, “since singing on the last two TURBOWOLF albums, I thought Chris wouldn’t mind performing a duet with me on our new album. As soon as I heard the driving chorus riff of New Doom, I knew that I wanted Chris’ vocals on the song. It’s reminiscent of this dominating heavy fuzz bulldozer energy that TURBOWOLF bring, so it seemed fitting that we ask them to join us in song. The video was shot by Rosalind Jane, in Bristol, which is where Chris resides, so we thought we’d ask, and we’re so pleased it turned out so well. He’s a natural performer, and his energy was just what the video needed. I also think having more people making a spectacle is often more entertaining to watch, so we are very happy with the end result. Chris’ transformation into a Butterfly is something I didn’t know I needed to see, and I’m glad I did.”

Continuing, she says, “mental health challenges appear every day, and the people who fight these battles are constantly carrying a heavy load. It is important to remember our dark days, so we can appreciate the light. It is also just as important to remember our dark days so we can muster understanding and compassion for others, especially when they might need it most. This isn’t always easy. Finding new ways to gain strength to battle and avoid as many casualties as possible should be encouraged, even if you are channelling something a little beyond this realm.”
