Experimental Metal Band KISSING CANDICE Unleashes Blasphemous New Music Video For “South Circle” Featuring Josh Balz (ex-Motionless in White)

Experimental metal quintet KISSING CANDICE has released their latest single and blasphemous new music video for “South Circle”. The video features a guest appearance by Josh Balz (ex-Motionless in White, Space Zebra) and was directed by Tom Flynn (Lamb of God, Body Count) in an old converted Church, as the band worships at the dark altar.

“The main theme of South Circle is hypocrisy from people who don’t practice what they preach,” said Kissing Candice bassist Mike Grippo. “Questioning organized religion is something we have touched on before, but this time we wanted to do it in a more direct way, set to a huge song with a catchy anthemic chorus. We wanted the song to be simple yet powerful, both musically and lyrically. We went about this with distinguished crunchy guitar riffs and OF COURSE killer bass tone, South Circle draws influence from the massive sounding songs we grew up loving in the early 2000’s.”

He continued about the music video, “We knew we had to make it as huge as the song. We got super lucky when Josh Balz offered up some help with it. He loved the song and just so happens to own a Church. He invited us down to his church, where we had our frequent video collaborator Tom Flynn drive out to meet us. We cleared the pews out of the way and set up some pyro and just went nuts for hours while Tom worked his magic. Josh also wanted to be in the video, so he makes his acting debut as the preacher dealing with the battle which rages on in his mind.”

The new video also showcases the new visual look of KISSING CANDICE, which features masks designed by noted horror prosthetic makeup artist and director Tom Savini and special effects artist Jason Baker who created the masks used by frontman AUNT DONNA, along with Jeff Koncor who made the masks worn by the rest of the band. The new masks create a terrifying visual element that perfectly compliments the brutal attack of the song.
