Vreid release new music video for ‘Spikes of God’

VREID have released a new music video!

The new video, for the track Spikes of God, is the latest single taken from the Norweigan black ‘n’ roll band’s upcoming new album Wild North West, which is set for release in April this year. The upcoming album is not just a collection of songs, but a concept album that developed alongside an entire movie.

VREID songwriter and bass player Jarle Hváll Kvåle comments: “A new chapter from our album and movie Wild North West is revealed, and it’s a vile and intense chapter. This song is absolutely one of the most brutal, dark and most in-your-face songs we have ever written. The main idea for this song came to me one dark night in March 2020. I became haunted by this theme and spent the whole night in studio finishing this track. Afterwards I have barely made any adjustments to the original demo for the song. I wanted its primal ugliness to shine through and let it live its life without any corrections. The movie for this song dives into a black hole of human history, and is an illustration of how far astray we can go if we are blinded by the faith of our own perfection.”
