Behind The Scenes: The Tensions - Surfin' The Coffin (Official Video)

"Surfin' The Coffin" music video is directed by Christian Bolognaise, shot in one day on VHS along the Silver Side (in Labenne and Bénesse-Maremne). The video features the band, chased by the devil (played by Laurent "El Diablo" Belhouaïchat), it depicts the traps the devil sets within our subconscious that we ultimately find ourselves caught in. That little voice in our head is always there; there are only moments when it becomes a bit more apparent.

With this track, The Tensions continue to explore a garage-punk universe tinged with sarcasm, dark humor, and various forms of mockery: "Surfin' The Coffin" implies, in a sense, that the deadline of death is inevitable, so one might as well be aware of it and live life at full throttle.

Following a number of notable performances in France, Spain, Belgium, and Switzerland, as well as the release of the track "Tangerine" last spring, the band reaffirms an identity defined by a sense of urgency in their composition and a no-frills approach to songwriting.

"Surfin' The Coffin" was produced by Robert Goupil (Papa Legba Records), whose work highlights an analog sound rooted in raw energy.
