The vibrant heavy music scene of Melbourne, Australia, has birthed a compelling new era of artistic expression with the arrival of the couture symphonic metal quintet ANA. Known for their unique synthesis of luxury fashion, theatricality and punishing sonic precision, the band has officially released a spellbinding new music video for their deeply personal track, Papa.
The conceptual foundation of Papa is rooted in a posthumous letter written by vocalist Anna Khristenko to her deceased father, who was tragically lost to addiction during her childhood.
Directed by the award-winning photographer Peter Coulson, this cinematic masterpiece serves as a profound visual anchor for the band’s new full-length studio album, Motivated by Death, recently released on May 29, 2026 via Eclipse Records. This is the third music video from their new album, and it successfully captures a whirlwind of human emotion, utilizing a distinctly claustrophobic set design to balance intense performance energy with fragile vulnerability.
