Ssion
20 August 2008 :: posted by TravisThe only thing more exciting than new Ssion music is new Ssion videos — “A Wolves Eye” is the centerpiece of Ssion’s unique vision. Ritualistic synchronized dancing around a bon fire, wolf men, hellish imagery, and, um, is that a woman in a hood eating smores? It’s awkward, funny, somewhat stylish and totally timely.
Ssion also re-worked a song off an album that shaped my early music tastes… then & now Ssion’s update breathes new life and meaning into “Credit in the Straight World”:
