Devilment, the black metal band led by Dani Filth, have premiered an animated music video for the song “Full Dark, No Stars.” The song is off of the band’s sophomore full length, Devilment II: The Mephisto Waltzes, out via Nuclear Blast on November 18th. The song has a beautiful piano motif dancing throughout the song, in which the band transform into the dark ballad with piercing guitars and Filth’s unique vocal performance. The music video was animated by Sophie Bedborough and edited by Sam Scott-Hunter.
“The title for this song is taken from a Stephen King horror anthology, much as the title of our first album was lifted from a book by Clive Barker (The Great And Secret Show) though there is no correlation between the book and the song, other than it represents a bleak period; a state of wanton depression; an absence of being”. Dani recounts. “It is, much like many songs on this album, about regaining the light, the overcoming of demons, and of triumphing over the immense shadow of fear itself.”
