Official video for new single 'Duress’ by Australian Prog/Metal/Noise band Hence Confetti. Stream Here: MUSIC/MERCH SPOTIFY APPLE MUSIC Follow Hence Confetti Here This video was created and edited by James Camplin and Rowland Hines This song tells a haunting tale of demons who, through modern technology, hypnotise humanity into a collective slumber before consuming us. The lyrics paint a picture of a society sedated and self-destructive, oblivious to the approaching consequences. An “interval of blankness” descends, underscoring their vulnerability. In the accompanying video, elements of artificial intelligence enhance the disturbing narrative, with tentacles and wires consuming and deforming the world as we know it. Oceanic creatures invade and infect the human race, adding to the eerie and unsettling atmosphere. “When the sky is falling will we all be scrolling, ignoring all the warnings?” Lyrics - Absent sedated in unison we self destruct Obedient to our contraptions Pleasure over purpose Consequences in the distance move towards us The Interval of blankness comes to collect A symbol of our weakness hangs over our heads When the sky is falling will we all be scrolling Ignoring all the warnings The sky will realise we’ve not been watching Free trial perspective comes to an end Reflection we see is now pretend Crowd no longer nods or taps their feet The hypnotic nonsense on repeat Should we have held our eyes open when we prayed The curiosity necessitates us to turn the page What’s in the sky The Interval of blankness comes to collect and rob us blind Subconscious invaded Embellished decorations we’ve seen Subdued we are now held by our screens Immobilised by what has been perceived Images sing us to sleep Crowd no longer nods or taps their feet The hypnotic nonsense on repeat Absent sedated in unison we self destruct Obedient to our contraptions Pleasure over purpose Consequences in the distance move towards us Absent Self destruct Pleasure over purpose Consequences in the distance move towards us All music and lyrics written, recorded, produced, performed, mixed and mastered by Hence Confetti Hence Confetti is proudly part of The Bird's Robe Collective
