As promised, we released our second video/single from ‘Out Of Chaos Comes…’. On Wednesday, we premiered the ‘Box Cutter’ mix of “Temple Of Desire”! This remix was created by Tyler Bates, known for his incredible film and TV scoring credits, and also for co-writing and producing Marilyn Manson’s ‘The Pale Emperor’ and ‘Heaven Upside Down’ and featuring the amazing Rafe Pearlman.

"Music is very personal to me, so it's rare that I remix or re-imagine another artist's music. But after decades of sharing our musical experiences through friendship, I was thrilled when Michael Ciravolo urged me to create a new expression of "Temple of Desire," that is truly my own. The original song is already amazing, so the bar was a high mark to reach, but. Rafe Pearlman's evocative lyrics and soulful vocal performance inspired me to explore a new dimension for this track. I love both versions!" … Tyler Bates

Tyler’s ‘Box Cutter’ mix condenses and expands the original to new sonic territory, adding film like textures and some fantastic guitar work. He also recruited Marilyn Manson’s Gil Sharone on drums.

As with each BIC video, we try to make them unique and different. Our new video is certainly the polar opposite of ‘A Kind Cruelty’! We again enlisted Vicente Cordero and Industrialism Films to bring ‘Temple Of Desire’ to life. It is a gorgeous, somewhat light-hearted behind-the-scenes’ affair with some ‘fun’ added during this crazy time in our world. Vicente’s creative choice to go Black & White on this video enhances and punctuates the diverse remixes on the new album.

Big Thanks to God Is In The TV Zine, Indie Entertainment Magazine, Torched Magazine, and of course the mighty Jammerzine for helping spread the word!!!

I can reveal that we plan a 3rd video/single for early December … and the ‘pendulum’ will definitley swing back 180 degrees!
