  • “In The Dead of the Night” — Italian Darkwavers This Eternal Decay Unveil Surreal Video for “Violate”

    Show me your face
    In the dead of the night
    at the edge of your eyes

    The erotic imagination has always been a marvelous little troublemaker, forever confusing the sacred with the profane, transforming vulnerability into pleasure, and reminding us that the human heart shares its cramped accommodations with some wonderfully disreputable tenants. Given sufficient trust, even submission can become an exquisite declaration of freedom, although explaining that to the average moral busybody might require several drinks and a very patient dominatrix.

    Italian darkwave outfit This Eternal Decay have ventured into these deliciously compromised quarters with VIOLATE, the sixth single from their forthcoming album AMIGDALA, due January 15, 2027, via Swiss Dark Nights. The title carries the suggestion of transgression, while the song’s exploration of consensual BDSM examines the curious emotional arithmetic by which surrender becomes an expression of agency. Desire, after all, has never shown much respect for tidy philosophical categories, especially when two people have agreed to abandon their inhibitions and see where the evening takes them.

    At the center of VIOLATE lies the erotic charge of willingly placing oneself in another person’s hands. Submission becomes a language of trust, charged with the knowledge that exposing one’s vulnerability can require considerably more courage than maintaining control. The attraction resides in that precarious exchange, where anticipation sharpens every sensation and the boundaries between pleasure, apprehension, and emotional release grow increasingly complicated. This Eternal Decay approaches these contradictions with an appetite for psychological unease, finding fertile ground in the strange negotiations between affection, obsession, and the desire to be possessed.

    The accompanying video, directed by Riccardo Sabetti, with special effects by RVS, pushes this fascination into a feverish cinematic dimension. Drawing upon the confrontational erotic imagery of 1990s hardcore cinema, the dislocated identities of David Lynch’s Mulholland Drive, and the immersive visual experimentation of Bill Viola, the film presents bodies as fragmented forms caught between fantasy and physical sensation. Reality seems to lose its structural integrity as flesh, movement, and distorted perception become expressions of longing and control. The imagery suggests a mind overwhelmed by its own appetites, where the familiar begins to look disturbingly foreign and desire acquires the peculiar logic of a dream from which nobody is particularly eager to awaken.

    Watch the video for Violate below:

    There is a mischievous philosophical question buried beneath all this erotic theatre: how much of ourselves must we give away before we begin to discover who we are? Perhaps the greater danger lies in finding someone who knows precisely where our deepest desires reside and possesses the patience to coax them into daylight. With VIOLATE, This Eternal Decay explore the seductions and uncertainties of that exchange, allowing tenderness, obsession, and the possibility of emotional ruin to share the same bed.

    AMIGDALA promises to carry these preoccupations further, examining memory, desire, and the psychological injuries that continue influencing our relationships even when we would prefer to believe ourselves cured. Human beings have an extraordinary talent for returning to the sources of their deepest pleasure and pain, occasionally discovering that both have the same telephone number. If “VIOLATE” offers any advice, it might be to choose your accomplice carefully, establish your boundaries, and remember that the sweetest surrender begins with the freedom to say yes.

  • Led Zeppelin finally relent: Stairway To Heaven soundtracks the new Narnia trailer

    Led Zeppelin might be famously reluctant to licence their music to Hollywood, but Jimmy Page has made an exception for the new Narnia movie, and it’s a biggie: Stairway To Heaven.

    The 1971 classic, which originally appeared on the band’s fourth album, has found a new home as the heavily remixed soundtrack to the trailer for Narnia: The Magician’s Nephew, the Netflix adaptation of the first story in C.S. Lewis’s Chronicles Of Narnia series, which hits the big screen in February.

    Typically, a modern Hollywood trailer makes music sound galactic in scale, and this is no exception, with Robert Plant’s vocals isolated and drenched in reverb, and Jimmy Page’s iconic solo clattering in with more force than ever before.

    “I had the privilege of meeting [film director] Greta Gerwig, a powerhouse in the world of cinema,” says Page. “She is a switched-on creative, as seen by way of Little Women, Lady Bird and Barbie, and the soon-to-be-released Narnia movie.

    “I am thrilled that she chose Stairway To Heaven in the trailer for her film.”

    According to a report in Variety, Gerwig wrote to Page and Plant to seek permission to use Stairway To Heaven in the movie, and showed them an early cut.

    “It’s an epic song, and narratively, about a spiritual journey, a path of fake idols and wrong roads you can go down. It made sense to introduce the world,” says Gerwig. “I was so moved that they allowed me to use this song. They saw the heart and story of the film.”

    Previously, requests to use Stairway To Heaven on Wayne’s World and Almost Famous were turned down by Led Zeppelin.

    Meanwhile, recent movies to have benefitted from the band’s more relaxed attitude towards licensing include Argo (2012) and The Big Short (2015), which both used When The Levee Breaks, Thor: Ragnarok (Immigrant Song, 2017) and The Further Mis-Adventures of Cliff Booth (Black Dog, 2026).
