A lyric video for our track “The Lonely Sky” from our album ‘Dust’ uses borrowed images from an illustrated book of biblical stories from the 1940s, which mirror its somewhat epic themes of seeking for meaning in a confusing world of trials and tragedies, but in a Humanist way.

The Sighs of Monsters spent the day on a boat on the River Colne, knocking back cheap whiskey, and working on some rootsy acoustic versions of our songs. We started, aptly enough, with ‘Sea Stories’ from our first album, Ground.

Music Video – “Drawing”
The Sighs of Monsters were privileged to be able to film the video for the song they originally recorded for the forthcoming tribute to South African poet, Ingrid Jonker, in a historic 14th century medieval church in Kent, England during the village of Southfleet’s annual festival during which the building is transformed into an art gallery. A few of the parishioners and visitors took a break from wondering around the paintings in this splendid Gothic setting to see what all the noise was about. They seemed to appreciate our efforts and even provided some polite applause at the end. But what an epic setting for such an epic poem! We hope our music and performance does it justice.
‘Sea Stories’ Music Video
The music video for Sea Stories is done! We filmed it around the coast of Kent and in the woods around London.
‘The Engagement’ Music Video
The epic swords-and-sandals official film for ‘The Engagement’. We cut the video from public domain footage from Il Gladiatore Invincibile, a 1961 Italian/Spanish film directed by Alberto De Martino and Antonio Momplet. It was the perfect metaphor.
