Experimental French vocalist / composer Rïcïnn (Laure Le Prunenec) has unveiled the stunning new video to the single 'Doris', which features guest vocals from Travis Ryan of Cattle Decapitation. The animated video, which was entirely digitally hand-drawn by German artist Marius. M. Muench, marks the one year anniversary of Rïcïnn's ground-breaking new album Nereïd, out now via Blood Music.

Marius commented on the video and his creative process: “Drawing gives me the ability to create my own unique worlds, to tell stories from distant lands defined by my pen, but expanded by any viewer's imagination and therefore hold secrets that not even I may know, even though I have drawn the fundamentals of it.
"Laure does the same with her music, voice and language, so it was quite exciting to see what happens when we combine both our ways and create a third realm that consists of both her musical universe and the universe of my drawings.
"Together with the tribal drums of Sylvain Bouvier, the apocalyptic scream of Travis Ryan textured by the guitars of Eran Segal, and conducted by the strings of cellist, Raphael Verguin, mixed and mastered by Déhá Amsg and now accompanied by my drawings, Rïcïnn created a child holding parts of all our imaginations, a child named Doris.
"Or how the creator of both our favourite series would put it "There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge.’ (Rodman Edward Serling, The Twilight Zone)
"It is an area which we call ‘The Doris Zone’."
