Enter Helms Alee’s world (or its practice space anyway) in the slow-burning “Spider Jar” video
Seattle ragers Helms Alee have a new album coming out this month, and ahead of the release they’ve shared a video for the song “Spider Jar.” Out April 26, Noctiluca will be the band’s fifth album, and they’ll be in town for a show at Johnny Brenda’s supporting Earth on June 16.
The “Spider Jar” video takes advantage of the band’s darkened practice space to create a haunting atmosphere that matches the heavy, slow-burning track. Watch below. Helms Alee also recently shared the forthcoming album’s lead single, “Interachnid.”
Tickets for the Johnny Brenda’s show are on sale now. Find more information on the XPN Concert Calendar.
