A Place to Bury Strangers Team Up With Acclaimed Horror Director

A Place to Bury Strangers have just debuted a new music video directed by acclaimed horror filmmaker Travis Stevens. The clip for “My Head Is Bleeding” comes from the band’s 2022 album, See Through You.

“My Heart Is Bleeding” is a synth-driven cut of post punk from the New York-based band, heavily rhythmic and dark like a basement dungeon. Travis Stevens (Girl on the Third Floor / Jakob’s Wife) brings his dynamic ad claustrophobic style to the video, which is presented in black and white.

And the tears form rivers that I can’t contain with my hands
My head is bleeding I should be focused on the road

“This song is about internally begging to a God when you might not necessarily believe in one,” says frontman Oliver Ackermann. “It’s that moment where there’s just a sliver of hope that anything in your head might connect you with the Universe and actually make a change.”

“The entire album rips but there's a plea to transform suffering into joy in this song that I really sparked to,” Stevens adds. “In order to emulate the raw unpredictability of an APTBS performance, I tried to create a similar magical combination of flesh, emotion, intuition and technology."
