Good Day Noir Family,
Rosetta West’s new video for Circle of Doubt is a raw, unfiltered companion to an already intense track.
Circle of Doubt is Rosetta West’s Video Out Now
The simplicity of the visuals perfectly complements the song’s unrelenting spirit, making it an immersive experience.
The video opens with a close-up of the guitar, capturing the mysterious riff that sets the tone. It then transitions to a cemetery scene, where weathered tombstones stand like small, haunting totems. Here, we find Joseph Demagore leaning against one of the graves, delivering the song with a presence that feels grounded and enigmatic.
Throughout the video, archival photos from the band’s early days flash on the screen—snippets of their first gigs and formative experiences.
These moments infuse the video with a nostalgic touch, giving fans a glimpse into the group’s journey while reinforcing the track’s brooding atmosphere.
There’s an almost ritualistic quality to the visuals, amplified by the inclusion of esoteric symbols and old show posters, bridging the past with the present.
The raw aesthetic of the video suits the band’s ethos, capturing the essence of Circle of Doubt without overwhelming the music. The simplicity works in its favor, maintaining a hypnotic quality that lingers long after the final frame.
Rosetta West has managed to create a video that feels unsettling and strangely inviting, much like the song itself.
