Biblical Throw Some BDSM And Cult-ish Activities In Their New Video
Toronto, ON rockers Biblical have released a video for “All Justice No Peace”, which comes from their latest album Monsoon Season. The video, directed by Eva Michon, shows a man being treated like royalty. He’s being bathed, he’s being groomed, he’s being wined… The whole nine yards. But through it all it’s obvious that he has no idea what the hell is going on and he’s actually looking rather fearful. Soon after, he’s strapped to a table where some cultists proceed to electrocute the sh*t out of him.
WELL! That’s one way to get to know your neighbors! Personally, I recommend a good old fashioned BBQ but I guess some people want to go a little edgier.
Michon comments, “The lyrical content of the song includes references to punishment, death by hanging, someone being brought to justice. I thought of ceremonial killing rituals and began to piece a storyline together which we could should in a simple way, in our current (or recent) era. Making it an amateur video lends itself to a creepy/snuffy tone but at the same time, we were able to keep some humor intact so that people knew we weren’t actually going to kill anyone.”

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.”
