Whenever you have the chance to watch the video, you should definitely take it, as the visual staging is simply grand and enhances the already powerful musical performance. 'Little Psycho Riding Hood' is a compelling journey through an enchanted and dark soundscape, and in the spirit of trick or treat, we have undoubtedly received a treat with this release that will stay with us for a long time.
