Metallica 'Confusion' by Claire Marie Vogel
Luke Bather - 30th Nov 2016
As part of their project to release as many six-to-seven-minute music videos as possible in a single day - all for tracks on the new album Hardwired... to Self-Destruct, Metallica team up with Claire Marie Vogel to deliver a harrowing video for Confusion.
The video follows a female war veteran, suffering from PTSD and trying to adjust to life after military service. Through cinematic flashbacks we see her try to adjust to office life, whilst little things constantly remind her of her time in active duty. As the video moves forward, more and more elements from both sides of her life blend into one another, as she battles to overcome her trauma.
It's a narrative with some excellent visual motifs, including a blink-and-you'll-miss-it reference to Metallica's new album on a coffee mug.
