Currently in the midst of a 10-date Australian tour, New Zealand’s HEX have taken a moment to unveil a fittingly occult-themed video for their latest single “Page Of Pentacles”. The clip was conjured up by band members Kiki and GG Van Newton and stars their friend Strange Stains as the beleaguered Page to whom the song’s title refers.
“The video was filmed in against the backdrop of Naenae hills in-between two large storm fronts. Strange Stains stars as the Page of Pentacles, whose inner psyche comes to life in a confronting form. The video is an allegory for a flatmate gone wrong, and an ode for all of us who are confronting our own inner workings. Sometimes it feels safer to run away, but our psyche remains wherever we go.”
The Wellington trio have brought their sharp, anthemic, wholly unapologetic and raw pagan-punk to Australia for the very first time, catch them on their remaining dates in Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney…
