Sock Puppet Parody wishes Lacuna Coil a happy 20th birthday to their legendary album, Comalies. For the funsies, they have recreated the entire outfit as sock puppets and reworked the lyrics of the 2002 track, “Heaven’s A Lie", to fit a theme of despondent undergarments lamenting the loss of socks after a dry cycle.

The video is decked out with cathedral walls supporting a stained glass depiction of an unmerciful dryer overlord looking onto the crusade of priest gown clad puppets. It’s clear these socks do not agree with modern laundering technology.

The Sock Puppet Parody crew are not the only ones celebrating. Earlier this month, Lacuna Coil released a new album, Comalies XX, which is the entire Comalies album rerecorded with the current day lineup.

Back in 2002, Lacuna Coil released an album which is now undeniably an anthem laden millennial classic that established them as a band with the stamina to go the distance and much of the climbing that still lay ahead back then. Now, 20 years later, Lacunca Coil decided to revisit the songs, but not to just re-record the songs as they were, but deconstruct and transport them into 2022.

“This is not a reboot or a spin-off or anything like that,’ says vocalist Cristina Scabbia. “We just wanted to give these songs a 2022 dress and see how this guy or girl who was born 20 years ago would still look fucking slick in 2022.”
