Tales of Despair (Zus Remix) - Music Video

Discover the new video clip from French group JE T'AIME, a striking creation co-directed by Quentin Caffier and Anaïs Novembre. The clip features a remix by French artist Zus of the song "Tales Of Despair" from their new augmented album "AGGRESSIVE+AGGRESSION".

In this visual universe, the three members of the band appear in still shots, their screams and shrieks captured in slow motion, against a vibrant backdrop of flashy, epileptic light. The bright colours create an electric, immersive atmosphere, reminiscent of the aesthetics of industrial music.
The video is a sensory explosion, fusing the raw energy and emotional intensity of JE T'AIME with striking visuals.

ABOUT "AGGRESSIVE+AGGRESSION" DOUBLE ALBUM :

"AGGRESSIVE+AGGRESSION" is the final augmented part of a trilogy started by the eponymous album of the band JE T’AIME.

It is also the album awaited by the band’s fanbase as either a confirmation of their talent, or as their fall as a short-lived phenomemon. We follow the evolution of the same antihero, whom we had left in bad shape in the previous album. But is he all that fictional tough ?

He appears to look more and more like a common avatar of the 3 musicians. The tone hardens, the atmosphere becomes more melancholic, and the lyrics embrace bitterness and anger.

ZUS ON TALES OF DESPAIR REMIX

"Once again I've remodelled the music of JE T'AIME, this time with a lot of distortion while trying to channel the energy of the original songs with natural influences like Nine Inch Nails, Killing Joke, Ministry and many others. The result is "AGGRESSION"."


ZUS BIOGRAPHY

Already used to various genres bending and twisting inside the band öOoOoOoOoOo, Zus (aka Baptiste Bertrand) has been doing remixes for about a decade.

Usually trying not to been trapped in only one musical genre in his own works as for the remix he does, he often completely reshape the songs he's given in order to present them as new completely original ones.

ANAIS NOVEMBRE ABOUT "TALES OF DESPAIR REMIX" VIDEO

"While Quentin's first video highlights and moves the beauty and sadness of a couple's relationship, this one tells of cold anger, silent frustration and muted pain, the kind that buzzes inside us and gnaws at us in silence."

Lyrics

Singing tales of despair years after year
Like digging my own grave tore me apart
I’m spinning on the edge, oh I must fly away
I can’t fight it on forever more

Feeding of your lie is like eating the world
I’ll through it all up on your face until I feel clean
And out of your Hell

I’ll send back your myth, your tricks and your spells
I’ll dismiss my fears and move along
I’ll draw my own path without even a glance
Getting up high above the hill and breathe
