Cryptopsy "Malicious Needs" Music Video
05/13/25 | [dcraley]The Ocean Announce New Album & Music Video
Berlin-based post-metal collective THE OCEAN has premiered a music video for the album’s second single, “Parabiosis.” Filmed on tour, the video shows the artificially-aged band members signing up for an “eternal youth” program and their aging in reverse. The track itself is “about stem cell research and the cosmetics industry’s war against aging and our society's quest for rejuvenation elixirs, plastic surgery, etc, which leads to the question of— how far can and shall we go regarding bio-engineering and medicinal progress?” the band comments.
They continue, “The cult of eternal youth has lead to death being hidden from our everyday lives. You literally see no old people in our modern inner cities anymore, everyone is young and healthy and the sick and dying are locked away in clinics and retirement homes where they won’t remind the general public of the fact that we are all going to die one day, which keeps us stuck on a hamster wheel of spending the time of our lives working jobs we hate to afford things we don’t need…”
Pre-orders are available now.
