Virgo project , an iconic partnership between Andre Matos ( Viper, Angra, Shaman ) and Sascha Paeth ( Avantasi and Heaven's Gate ), has released the music video for "No Need to Have an Answer".
The music video features never-before-seen footage, recorded exactly 25 years ago, capturing a unique and special moment in the careers of these two rock giants. This visual material is being made available to the public for the first time.
Sascha handed over some tapes to Anderson Bellini during Bangers Open Air 2025, and commented that he was surprised by the result:
“First of all, I really didn’t expect that a music video would be made with the material I delivered in Brazil a few weeks ago. I was very surprised when I received the video for that wonderful song that’s on Virgo’s album, which Andre wrote. And, of course, that touched me in a special, sentimental way. It’s about memory, and of course, about Andre and everything else, but also about the memories of that incredible time we spent there, and our big plans that, in a way, didn’t come to fruition—and now, can never come to fruition again.”
“And yes, I also shared the clip with the other guys who are still in Virgo. We created a little group on WhatsApp and it was special. It was wonderful to hear from them and see their reaction — everyone was very happy to see that after so long, but also sad because of Andre's loss. So, it's good that we're in touch again. It's not that I haven't seen anyone in a long time, but we weren't all together, in contact, for that specific reason, of course,” he continued.
Tribute to Andre Matos
Anderson Bellini, responsible for the documentary Andre Matos – Maestro do Rock , led the work of recovering and digitizing the material. With dedication and sensitivity, Bellini transformed the original footage into a moving music video that is faithful to the artistic essence of Andre Matos. The video manages to capture the energy and creative spirit of the Virgo project, revealing intimate behind-the-scenes moments and spontaneous glimpses of the musicians.
The release of the music video represents a milestone for Andre Matos fans. The song "No Need to Have an Answer," one of the most memorable tracks from the album Virgo (2001), now has a visual representation that complements its lyrical and musical intensity. It's an opportunity to revisit a classic with a new perspective.
Besides being a tribute to Andre Matos, the music video also celebrates the friendship and musical partnership between him and Sascha Paeth. The chemistry between the two artists shines through in the images, which show everything from studio recordings to relaxed moments of musical creation. The video thus becomes a historical and emotional document, highlighting the artistic legacy of both.
