Today Pornhub, announced the premier of Flint, Michigan’s KING 810’s music video for “La Petite Mort” that will be debuted exclusively on the adult entertainment site.
The popular American band is the first to ever incorporate on-screen sex in an 8-minute long music video. The video, which was shot in Los Angeles and directed by the band’s own David Gunn, is a provocative piece of erotica featuring adult film stars Jenna Foxx, Jasmine Summers, Amber Ivy, Lily Jordan, Alex Legend and Jake Jace. “La Petite Mort,” which refers to ‘The Little Death’ (the sensation of orgasm as likened to death), is matched with explicit visuals in the official video conjuring the darkness and desperation of sexuality.
“We’re excited to debut the music video for KING 810’s, ‘La Petite Mort’ which features explicit depictions of arousal in its purest form – during sexual intercourse,” said Corey Price, VP, Pornhub. “KING 810’s music is often laced with social commentary and artistic expression, something that has definitely gotten a lot of people talking about them. We urge all of our fans to check out ‘Le Petite Mort’ on Pornhub today and to grab tickets for the band’s upcoming tour while tickets last!”
“A lot of the ideas for our videos came together in the song writing process. This one was no exception,” said David Gunn, Director and Lead Singer of KING 810. “The record touches on sex in a lot of ways. It used to be that sex and rock and roll went hand in hand, but that archetype has been reconstructed over the years to make way for a safe/tame/boring/politically correct culture, which we have never belonged to. It’s sad that something so inherent and necessary has become taboo, but we have done what we always do and that is to follow the art wherever it must go regardless of how uncharted the territory may be.”
In addition, KING 810 will embark on a series of limited engagement live events next month for their latest album, LA PETITE MORT OR A CONVERSATION WITH GOD, which will include a unique performance each night that will captivate its audiences in their intensely personal and often contentious world. The tour is slated to kick off on June 9 at Park Street in Columbus, Ohio and KING 810 will be joined by special guest Host on select dates. The band also recently launched Part 1 of ‘THIS IS KING,’ an episodic documentary piece which gives fans an unfiltered look into their lives and performances.
