OWL COMPANY takes a Rorschach test in new Antagonist music video
Brazilian active rockers Owl Company have just released a new music video for the song “Antagonist”, which is taken from their upcoming album Iris due out November 9, 2018 via Eclipse Records. The video was directed by Caike Scheffer and it explores the aftermath of ending a life-long relationship through a Rorschach test, administered by a psychiatrist to their patient. “We did a lot of research on the subject of Rorschach tests, different patterns, and disturbing answers from patients diagnosed as either schizophrenics, psychopaths, or sociopaths” says singer Enrico Minelli. “We wanted to show how some people handle breakups differently than others, and the inner turmoil someone can experience, even if they’re perfectly sane.” Drummer Thagio Biasoli adds, “Our director Caike drew upon elements of foreign cinema with regards to the dull colors and overlays of band images on top of one another. The purpose of this was to create a sense of confusion which the patient would feel with regards to their sanity slipping away”.
