Melting Palms - Orchard's Lie (Official Music Video)

Подробнее о видео

This song is one of the key pieces of the new Melting Palms album "Noise Between The Shades". And that not only because the lyrics and the accompanying video pick up on the iconic butterfly motif of the cover. "Orchad's Lie" rather represents the entire range that makes this band seem so enchanting.

PRE ORDER HERE

The beginning of the video is rather cinematic: a short pre-text spoken into a scratchy mic, the song is immediately close to you. "I want you to know you look beautiful as you drift away," breathes Mike, who shares vocals with guitarist Teresa at Melting Palms.
Then the intro kicks in properly - and lets you flicker along with the band between tragedy and redemption, between comfort and melancholy. The sound itself opens up worlds somewhere on the shores of shoegaze, kraut, noise and psychedelic.
"Orchad's Lie“ is forward-looking guitar music with a very old soul.

LYRICS
Close my eyes,
feel the wind.
Imagine your breath,
caressing my sins.

Stroke the heads,
of growing grain.
In front of the sun,
above orange plain.

The landscape dies,
into dust from nightmare.
I search the sun,
and she's not there

You're not there.
