Shobaleader One 'Iambic 5 Poetry'
Brainwash
The concept was to build on some of the ideas generated in the album art of the LPs gatefold which tells the story of the four Shobaleaders returning to earth under the instruction of their guiding principle and unifying force 'Elektrac'. We wanted to make something mysterious and moody that subtly built on the band's lure and mythology by showing them arriving to earth and attempting to recontact Elektrac via some indecipherable light ritual. The artwork for Black Sabbath's self-titled LP and some dicy episodes of Doctor Who were our main visual inspiration. We looked for interesting locations that evoked a very British, pagan kind of vibe that we could bring to life with a freaky light show. The idea being to ground these strange electronic lifeforms in an equally strange rural setting to make an otherworldly juxtaposition that would tie into with the melancholy melody of the track.
