Lucid Dementia – Witches Hat (Single) – Release/Review – DARKER SIDE OF MUSIC

Release Date: 5 June 2026

REVIEW:

Lucid Dementia’s latest single, “Witches Hat,” is a fun, punchy release with added horror in the mix. Electronic melodies, deep crisp basslines, and creepy vocals all add to this masterful track.

The creepy nature of the song’s style and its lyrics make it very theatrical, but not in an over-the-top way—just perfectly blending the music, lyrics, and video all into one.

The video is fun yet chilling. A must-watch for those with a spooky side.

This is a great song with a really awesome melody and such a great beat.

I’m very impressed. This is from the album Hexery, which was released on March 20, 2026, and everything is available on Bandcamp.

Please give this a listen, you won’t be disappointed! It really is a great track with a perfect twist of horror and fun all in one.

RELEASE DETAILS:

Industrial metal band, LUCID DEMENTIA has unleashed the first video from their newest album, Hexery.

“Witches Hat” presents a dark spell of inspiration put together on a low budget in an experiment to see what would happen if the band filmed an occult crime and called it a music video.

The song “Witches Hat” at its core is about how one should not touch a woman without her consent. LUCID DEMENTIA is a dark thing that does more than bumps in the night. So the music and lyrics are intricately woven to tell a story about what should happen to a soul that would break this rule.

The video tells a tale in 3 parts:
The dirty man’s hand reaches out, strokes, grabs a flower and squeezes it until it bleeds, then releases the flower and retreats. A witch then casts a spell by manipulating different objects on a table. Finally, a person is trapped in a room with the band with only a camera that has a tiny pin hole light.

The band performs the song in the pitch black darkness as if in a dreamy nightmare. The trapped person is entranced by the band and cannot stop peering at them as they perform the song. The video remains, but why the trapped person? Maybe there are clues within the other songs of the album, Hexery.
