STAHV Premiere New Video For "Voyage Of The Dawndraper" Off Of Soon To Be Released EP!



The new STAHV video for "Voyage of the Dawndraper" from its forthcoming The Sundowner EP is a trippy two-and-a-half minute journey through the pre-stone age featuring vintage footage from The Lost World by Harry O. Hoyt. Created by Ari Rosenschein, the clip is a mashup of dinosaur standoffs, fights, and tantrums. Rosenschein treated the film's quaint early special effects, then reshuffled the content to create a duotone, smokey netherworld. In it, these beasts trample each other between plumes of green smoke.

"Voyage of the Dawndraper" is the opening track on The Sundowner, STAHV's second release. The EP expands on the project's self-titled debut to include longer-form compositions as well as caustic freakouts. The Obelisk called the song, "a quick instrumentalist run through a variety of anti-genre influences, maintaining a heft of atmosphere while exploring further reaches of echoing guitar in darkened progressive form." "Voyage of the Dawndraper" vacillates between various odd-meter sections. Finally, it careens off a cliff, much like the Brachiosaurus in the song's video.

The Sundowner EP is a 22-minute head trip dusted with Meddle-era Floyd, Oxbow-style polyrhythms, bleak post-metal atmospherics, and auditory hallucinations a la Can. It drops on February 21st.
