VIDEO VOYAGEUR: 3 Q’s WITH SIREN

SIREN February s Son

There is something darkly playful about SIREN’s latest release, “No More”. Exploring the complications of marriage, lifelong promises and the rather inconvenient matter of death, the song takes the familiar idea of “till death do us part” and gives it a decidedly different interpretation. Its accompanying music video, directed and edited by Wayne Joyner, takes the story into the afterlife, where unresolved relationship issues apparently have a habit of following you.

Featuring the band as skeletons, pumpkins and plenty of Halloween-inspired imagery, the video brings a healthy dose of dark humour to a song that is surprisingly uplifting musically. We caught up with SIREN to discuss the inspiration behind “No More”, the creative collaboration with Wayne Joyner, the making of the video and the ideas that brought this rather unusual love story to life.

1. Tell us the story of this song, why did you choose to visualize the song specifically in this way?

“No More” explores a Married couple questioning their vows and the meaning of “till death do us part” aspect. Wayne created the video and went straight to the afterlife and it really worked well for this song.

2. What was the inspiration behind this video? (visual, storyline, etc.)?

That was Wayne’s vision and He nailed it!!!

3. What was the process of making this video?

We went through about four drafts before it was completed. The band as skeletons, pumpkins and the smoking candle were all from input from Randy, Mike and I. We thought we might as well make a Halloween video. I believe it came out fantastic.
