Through a son's perspective we look back in time to reveal the significant moments that shaped the estranged relationship between him and his father.

A Place To Bury Strangers Reveal “Dragged In A Hole” Music Video

Brooklyn NY, post punk/psych band A Place To Bury Strangers have revealed the video for their latest single "Dragged In A Hole".

The song is taken from their new album 'See Through You', released last  month (February 4) via Dedstrange. Grab your copy here.

Clanging found-object percussion and brutal, decimated guitar action percolate throughout a piercing, harsh industrial noisy punk ripper that scrapes the bottom of the barrel of human experience to only find there’s still a long way down.

 

"The original demo was so trashed and insane sounding that it shaped the lyrics into being about total obliteration,” says Ackermann. "When struggling with your belief in other human beings, you do feel totally destroyed. This song features percussion which is actually me banging on the pipes in my basement."

 

In the video, a woman endures a demonic possession at a local park. “'Dragged In a Hole' was inspired by the long snorri cam shots in Zulawski's Possession and the OTT horror of Evil Dead,” says director Tom Hughes.

 

“It was blocked and rehearsed by Isabelle Paige, who used her ballet and theatre experience to choreograph a routine to the song. It was filmed over one evening in a busy park in Cardiff; shooting two takes back-to-back with Isabelle wearing the camera rig, and me running alongside her, ducking and diving out of the camera's line of sight.

A Place To Bury Strangers Drop “My Head Is Bleeding” New Video

Brooklyn NY, post punk/psych band A Place To Bury Strangers have dropped the video for their latest single "Love Reaches Out".

The song is taken from their new album 'See Through You', released last  month (February 4) via Dedstrange. Grab your copy here.

Wispy synthesizers and lacerating chemical burn guitars engage in a heated call-and-response while Oliver Ackermann extends a desperate plea for sanity to whichever metaphysical entity might be listening. “This song is about internally begging to a God when you might not necessarily believe in one,” says Ackermann. “It’s that moment where there’s just a sliver of hope that anything in your head might connect you with the Universe and actually make a change.” Right away, “My Head is Bleeding” gushes from the speakers with pummeling drums and whirring, anxious electronics—preparing listeners for one deafening blunt-force chorus after another. In an accompanying music video from director Travis Stevens (Jakob’s Wife, Girl On The Third Floor), flesh and blood commingle in a pileup of heaving, mysterious biomass as a mechanical womb gives birth to an oily, ectoplasmic form..." “The entire album rips, " says Stevens. "but there's a plea to transform suffering into joy in this song that I really sparked to. In order to emulate the raw unpredictability of an APTBS performance, I tried to create a similar magical combination of flesh, emotion, intuition and technology."

Watch: A Place To Bury Strangers Unveil "Love Reaches Out" New Video

Brooklyn NY, post punk/psych band A Place To Bury Strangers have unveiled the video for their latest single "Love Reaches Out".

The song is taken from their new album 'See Through You', released earlier this month (February 4) via Dedstrange. Grab your copy here.

“’Love Reaches Out’ is the hope at the end of the tunnel that concludes this album,” says Oliver. “I went through such a traumatic experience writing this record and yet people were there to help me, so this song is about appreciating and thanking them.” 

With its triumphant marching snare and a hooky bassline, “Love Reaches Out” concludes See Through You on a warm and fuzzy note—though not the guitar kind. No circuit can contain the electrifying joy of two souls united. “Moments like this highlight how much [Ackermann has] grown as a singer,” writes Heather Phares at AllMusic. In her review of See Through You, she praises “Love Reaches Out” as “Ackermann and company’s most empathetic song to date.”

In the music video directed by horror auteur @GabeCarrer (For The Sake Of Vicious, The Demolisher), the third in a series directed by the band’s favorite horror movie directors, a woman unexpectedly encounters and reaches out to a shapeshifting entity in the most unlikely manner. This entity befriends her after it was left for dead and gives her the support needed to help battle her own anxiety and inner demons. “It reminds us not to turn a blind eye to the small things and that friendships can manifest in the most unlikely ways,” says Carrier.

Watch: A Place To Bury Strangers Air New Single/Video "I'm Hurt"

Brooklyn NY, post punk/psych band A Place To Bury Strangers have aired the video for their new single "I'm Hurt".

The song is taken from their forthcoming sixth studio album 'See Through You', which will be out February 4, 2022 on the band’s newly former label, Dedstrange. Pre-order your copy here.

The band dive headfirst into suffering on the dark and explosive “I’m Hurt.” Its accompanying video is the first in a series of notable horror movie directors the band reached out to collaborate on videos for See Through You.  First up is Chad Crawford Kinkle who directed last year’s critically acclaimed “Dementer” and the folk horror classic “Jug Face”..  

Under Kinkle’s frantic and hallucinatory direction, Oliver Ackermann’s expression of relentless liminal terror is transubstantiated into a brutal backwater blood feast. While the flickering, kinetic visuals will be familiar to anyone who has seen the band live, the psychological horror at the heart of “I’m Hurt” is raw.

 

Together, Chad Crawford Kinkle and APTBS scramble our collective unconsciousness with scenes of grotesque public freakouts from the outskirts of the subliminal that are tied to a scorned woman’s black magic ritual which conjures up teenage demons on the hunt for revenge.

Watch: A Place To Bury Strangers Unveil "Look Me In The Eye" New Video

Brooklyn NY, indie rock/psychedelic band A Place To Bury Strangers have unveiled the video for their latest single "Look Me In The Eye".

The song is taken from the band's fifth studio album 'Pinned', released back in April 13 via Dead Oceans. Buy your copy here.

The video was directed by Dave Merson Hess who explained: “Earlier this year, at the Barracuda in Austin, I finally got to see APTBS live. They sounded massive, with chaotic bursts of feedback, thumping overdriven bass, glitched out drums, and surprisingly pretty harmonies. With the video for "Look Me In The Eye", I wanted to use abstract animation to approximate that sound, visually. Experimental animator Robert Breer described the effect of watching his films as “assault and battery on the retina”. That became my guiding principle.
