PORN returns after 6 years to share with us their latest effort, “You Will Be The Death Of Me”. This single, released today, is a little more slow paced and melodic than their previous one (“Sunset Of Cruelty”), with a more gothic approach, and a longer buildup. Towards the end of the track the music has reached a crescendo, turning into straightforward industrial metal of pounding intensity.
The video for the track is as dark and intense as the music it accompanies. Starring Sabrina Carlino and Philippe Deschemin (vocalist of PORN), the film is simple in it’s set up but has a great visual impact, with Deschemin alternately singing and being tortured/teased by a dominating female figure. The color schemes for the video also switch with the scenes, being predominantly green and blue for the singing scenes, and red for the play scenes.
“You Will Be The Death Of Me is a song about life, death, and love. About the fact that love is like humans: mortal. I am obsessed by death. I see death everywhere. Everything ends, everything dies. And sometimes, maybe always, being in a relationship means to kill the previous version of yourself. You change, and in a way you die. To reborn as an other you. This video is a metaphor of a death, a ‘mise à mort”. And the idea to put a girl in the strong position, is quite interesting. A way to give the power to women.” – Deschemin
“You Will Be The Death Of Me” is the second single off PORN’s upcoming album The Ogre Inside that will be released in the US on December 1st.
