Nephila - New Music

NEPHILA / NEW MUSIC VIDEO

Sweden‘s 7-headed psychedelic rock orchestra Nephila shares a music video for the track ”Clavata”. The track is featured on the band‘s debut album ”Nephila”, released earlier this year. Jacob Hellenrud from the band comments: ”The lyrics of this song is a tribute to the fear and horror the spider ”nephila clavata” gives mankind, but Clavata is also that track on the album you just wanna rock your hips to. The music video will therefore make you just wanna move your feet to the beat.” 

The music video for ”Clavata” is shot and directed by Thomas and Elias Borrenmo at 42store. Nephila‘s debut self-titled album was released in June 2021 via The Sign Records. The album is available now on all streaming platforms, and can be purchased on CD/LP.

Progressive and psychedelic dreams combined with heavy blues rock, and theatrical expressionism. The 7-headed rock orchestra Nephila brings out the best of 60‘s and 70’s experimental rock while adding a touch of mysticism and visual storytelling. The band travels through history, dimension and stories. The orchestra opens up new realities with dynamic songs, progressive melodies and dual fantastic vocals. Join the theater and follow Nephila on their travels in known, and unknown, realities. Nephila is a musical spider, with its sprawling legs represented by 70‘s space rock. Flashing guitar solos and psychedelic melodies quickly brings to mind pioneers such as the American Jefferson Airplane and Sweden’s Abramis Brama. With members hailing from retro rock-band Children of the Sün, melodies and rhythm crawl like a red pulsing thread through the songs of this Swedish band. Guitars act as the basis on which hard rock rests as the heart of it all and with its mystical visuals, Nephila is a concept for you to discover with all of your senses. Allow yourself to take part of the thrill Nephila brings and let it become an alternative to what you already love. With members descending from both music and the theatre stage, the theatrical setting is a given.
- “Nephilas strength definitely lies in our performance”, says one of the band’s two lead singers. “The mystique is important. We all have strong personalities and our masks create yet another dimension. No matter what happens to any of us, the mask always lives on.”
