Smash Into Pieces – Wildfire (Official Music Video)

Official music video for ‘Wildfire’.

Wildfire: When the sharp intensity of a love story dissolves into a state where reality blurs into nightmare. In Smash Into Pieces’ most haunting and visually striking video production yet, APOC finds himself trapped in his own nightmare. It’s like being stuck, unable to break free, watching every horror unfold before your eyes. Embark on a gripping journey where Apoc hovers on the edge of life, witnessing his wife’s death and his children’s transformation of his teachings into something entirely opposite of his intentions—where anything can happen.

A fun anecdote related to the video production is that in the second-to-last scene, where APOC encounters the light, he enters the same room where the Swedish king Erik XIV was served his final meal. Erik XIV died after being poisoned with arsenic in his pea soup by his brother Johan III, who was King of Sweden at the time.

The Wildfire video was largely filmed and produced at Örbyhus Castle and its beautiful surroundings. A big thank you to Örbyhus Castle for their hospitality, and for those of you interested in history, we highly recommend checking out their website for various events and guided tours.
