The German band Kadavar , known for their roots in psychedelic stoner rock and 70s hard rock, has released the music video for "I Just Want To Be A Sound".
The band has been a quartet since 2023 with Jascha Kreft , alongside founders Simon 'Dragon' Bouteloup , Lupus Lindemann and Tiger Bartelt .
Their last two albums – E LDOVAR: A Story of Darkness & Light (2021) and Kadavar (2024) – reached the top ten of the German album charts; they composed music for Wolfmother and, more recently, for Fantastische Vier ; and they headlined tours around the world.
The video is the result of a partnership between Kadavar and Maximilian Wiedenhofer . In a statement about the work, the group commented, “We have long been big fans of him and his work. His unique visual language and often dark imagery bring a new color and perspective to the music he illustrates.”
“In 'I Just Want To Be a Sound,' for example, we focused exclusively on the sound, both musically and visually, and he contributed a completely new perspective to the song. But see for yourself.”
The actor in the video is Caelian del Mare , a highly acclaimed young German-Turkish actor and model from Berlin.
