Motionless In White Post Explanation Behind “America” Music Video

Earlier today, Motionless In White released a music video for their latest single, titled “America.” The band has now released a statement explaining the vision behind the video, and you can read that statement by taking a look below the jump.

The band will be embarking on the Rockstar Mayhem Festival this June, and the tour will last through August. After that, they will hit the road at the end of August down in South America with Asking Alexandria. Be sure to check out their Facebook page for a list of dates to see if they will be playing in your city.

The video coupled with lyrics to the song America are about nothing more than the cold hard truth. Every image and character presented in this video were crafted by Clown and myself down to the finest of details to portray a metaphorical visual of all the messages the lyrics convey. The strung out popstar/actress, the corrupt, oil profit hungry politician, the glutton representing the fast food industry, the pedophile priest, the temptress women and so on. All characters clearly found within the lyrics. I’ve forever been a fan of the saying “art imitates life” and that was the main inspiration behind the concept. Working with Clown has been a highlight of both
of my life and career. Brilliant and maniacal is his mind and I
cannot imagine having brought my concept to anyone else to properly accomplish my vision. Truly a pleasure.

Motionless has never been a band to release a video that has been without our efforts to either open people’s eyes, change the way they perceive day to day life occurrences or to inspire someone to look past the obstacles in their way and conquer their hesitations to truly be happy with themselves. With that being said, this video highly focuses on realizing the truth of your surroundings. To understand that the world is totally
fucked and although its not going to change any time soon, you can take solace in know that your fucked up life is just one of a incredibly vast amount and there’s plenty of humor to be found when you allow yourself to accept everything and just be happy being you. Just one of the free, the sick and the depraved.
