♫♪  GOLD - “The Controller”

Ah, vindication. Seems like it was forever and a day ago when we told you about GOLD with our trademark aplomb and wittiness. Wait… you do remember us telling you about GOLD, right? That post-everything band from The Netherlands consisting of vocalist Milena Eva, guitarist Thomas Sciarone (ex-The Devil’s Blood), guitarist Nick Polak, bassist Tim Meijer, and drummer Igor Wouters, whose mission statement is “to play a distinct form of heavy rock as a monument to civilization’s decline”? Okay, yeah, you obviously do.

Well, today, TMT has the pleasure of premiering the video for “The Controller,” a dark, pretty jam from GOLD’s forthcoming album on Profound Lore, No Image. Check out the video below, and read Milena’s thoughts on it here:

“The Controller” is a sweet little post-black metal song about a confusing world, which comes with a confusing video. What is real? Is “in real life” actually taking place in the outside world? And who’s in charge?! It is a psychedelic collage of beautiful offline and wondrous online footage: the Normandy sea, Moroccan Alpine choughs, ASMR, banana tutorials and crying babies. Have you taken your pills? Or are you getting out of control?

No Image is out November 6 on Profound Lore (and October 24 on Ván Records in Europe).
