Exclusive Music Video Photos: TesseracT’s ‘Nascent’
Bloody-Disgusting has scored some exclusive before and after shots of TesseracT’s upcoming music video ‘Nascent’. The song comes from their upcoming album, ‘One’, which hits stores March 22nd. Also after the jump are some quotes from singer Daniel Tompkins and bassist Amos Williams. I’m personally loving the look and those weird octopus brain things are kinda badass. Check ’em out after the jump!
From singer Daniel Tompkins:
“Nascent means to be born, to exist. From birth, we originate and evolve into who and what we are today. We exist and expose ourselves to ever changing environments, dilemma and confrontation. Predisposed personality traits and external influences determine who we are, the decisions we make and actions we take throughout our lives but are we truly in control of our own actions? Our subject will discover for himself whether that his path in life was ever his to control, whether his defects and destructive choice where a result of genetic inheritance or the result of a misguided life. Nature or Nurture”
From bassist Amos Williams:
“For some unknown reason when thinking about the video for Nascent, the video for ‘Bland Street Bloom’ by Sikth popped into my head. I then saw the video for ‘Never Ending Dream’ by Cyclamen and was blown away…when I learned that both videos were done by Tim Fox (CultLovesYou), we just had to get him onboard. His work has the epic scope and creative freedom that we crave in TesseracT.”
It’s a new day, and you’ve got new John Carpenter to listen to. John Carpenter, Daniel Davies and Cody Carpenter have released the new track He Walks By Night this morning, the second single off their upcoming album Lost Themes IV: Noir, out May 3 on Sacred Bones Records.
Lost Themes IV: Noir is the latest installment in a series that sees Carpenter releasing new music for John Carpenter movies that don’t actually exist. The first Lost Themes was released in 2015, followed by Lost Themes II in 2016 and Lost Themes III: Alive After Death in 2021.
Sacred Bones previews, “It’s been a decade since John Carpenter recorded the material that would become Lost Themes, his debut album of non-film music and the opening salvo in one of Hollywood’s great second acts. Those vibrant, synth-driven songs, made in collaboration with his son Cody Carpenter and godson Daniel Davies, kickstarted a musical renaissance for the pioneering composer and director. With Lost Themes IV: Noir, they’ve struck gold again, this time mining the rich history of the film noir genre for inspiration.
“Since the first Lost Themes, John has referred to these compositions as “soundtracks for the movies in your mind.” On the fourth installment in the series, those movies are noirs. Like the film genre they were influenced by, what makes these songs “noirish” is sometimes slippery and hard to define, and not merely reducible to a collection of tropes. The scores for the great American noir pictures were largely orchestral, while the Carpenters and Davies work off a sturdy synth-and-guitar backbone.
“The trio’s free-flowing chemistry means Lost Themes IV: Noir runs like a well-oiled machine—the 1951 Jaguar XK120 Roadster from Kiss Me Deadly, perhaps, or the 1958 Plymouth Fury from John’s own Christine. It’s a chemistry that’s helped power one of the most productive stretches of John’s creative life, and Noir proves that it’s nowhere near done yielding brilliant results.”
