Everything about Ride The Wings Of Pestilence totally explained
"
Ride the Wings of Pestilence" is the first single from
From First to Last's debut album
Dear Diary, My Teen Angst Has a Body Count.
Music Video
The music video for the song takes place in a Mexican setting. It features the band playing in a desert like setting. A weary man trudges around and seems to be on the verge of death. Towards the end of the video, the day turns to night and a sort of ritual seems to occur. There are savage looking people dancing around and a woman strapped to a cross. There is also another woman throughout the video who seems to be spinning violently. The video ends with the man dead on the floor with a pool of blood next to him.
This video and song seems to be loosely related to
Edgar Allan Poe's "
The Tell-Tale Heart" though nobody takes account for it. In the song, it seems as if Sonny Moore is talking to a girl while killing her, the video doesn't show this, but makes the man have a very guilty conscience, which later appears to kill him, even though this hasn't been proven. In the end the man is the victim, falling to "himself" and his dead friend.
The imagery expressed toward the end of the video also shows similarities to
Nathaniel Hawthorne's short story "
Young Goodman Brown," in which the title character is brought to an unholy ritual in the forest, in the dead of night, and proceeds to, the following day, wander aimlessly and despondently around his native town of Salem, much like the man in the video wanders around his town.
