VIDEO PREMIERE: The Vigils “Night Flight”

Premieres|Reviews

the vigils featured

While Slytherins know goth rock works all year round, post-fall equinox, it’s all the more magnificent. Los Angeles-based The Vigils pay tribute to the USA Network’s 1980s influential music video show Night Flight with their luring new video for forthcoming single of the same name. “Night Flight” is produced by Steven Kille of Dead Meadow and released by Shelby Cinca’s (Frodus) Swedish Columbia Label.

Thoroughly primal, sliced between moments from your favorite moments in horror, The Vigils, composed of Danny Boy(vocals), Roberto Palazzo (guitar), Sol Luongo (bass), Jessy Bender (saxophone), and Skeeter Joplin (drums) play in leather and ripped t-shirts worn over sweat-glistened skin in a cluttered black space. Lit with creaky televisions, strung-up Christmas lights, and the odd disco ball, it’s understood they let us inside their brain box. The passionately dark song is terrific in of itself; watch the video below.
