Blackbriar are proud to release a gorgeous, morbid animated video for their latest single, the soaring ‘Harpy’. The track weaves a tale about the mythological being, the Harpy – the spirit of the wind and storms, a chilling creature who was known to abduct people, particularly those cursed by the gods.

Vocalist Zora Cock comments:
“Every bit of this video was lovingly crafted by hand, without the use of AI. All the artwork was first hand-drawn by our talented art designer and then brought to life through frame-by-frame animation by our animator. It’s a fully handcrafted process, nothing was generated. Watch our other animated video for “Selkie” created by the same awesome team here.”

Blackbriar´s new album A Thousand Little Deaths will be released on August 22nd 2025 via Nuclear Blast Records.
