Joseph Arthur celebrates the release of "Faith", the first record in his "You're Not a Ghost Anymore" album trilogy by sharing a music video for the song "Hey Satan" that was directed by David J. East (Foals, Melanie C, Gengahr) and was filmed at the 12th-century Castello di Ramazzano in Perugia, Italy.

"Interesting that I made it to Perugia at all," says Joseph Arthur. "And to this castle from the year 1000. I was commissioned to make some paintings here. The supplies were laid out The canvases stretched and absurdly big just like everything else here.

"Things are exaggerated until they become normal. Environments adapt into us as much as we adapt into them. They shift you. The ghosts of stone walls that have probably seen knights eviscerate one another under blood-soaked skies whisper strange thoughts while having wine and cheese over polite conversation all these years later.

"We were also here to shoot a video for 'Hey Satan.' With an orchestra. A snake. And a portrait of Lucifer that painted itself in the dungeon All blood red, dripping. With an expression that had an immortal coldness behind sad eyes that forgot how to be sad a long time ago.

"Someone mentioned as we shot in a field of olive trees that was meant to impersonate the Garden of Eden that the town just over the hill was called 'the town of the devil.' Another strange occurrence in bringing this song to life. I guess when you address Satan, odd things happen.

"The song itself is just Adam singing to him about what happened back then and how the struggle for humanity to find its heart here is eternal as a result."

According to the announcement, the "You're Not a Ghost Anymore," album trilogy is "a groundbreaking new album project conceived as a single long arc and presented in three separately released, full-length movements: Faith, Heart, and Fight."
