Shepherds Reign is proud to announce the release of their latest video clip for the heavy metal anthem Samoa Mo Samoa.

This project signifies the band’s first journey to their homeland, where they traveled from Upolu to Savaii to capture stunning scenic drone footage of historic locations that resonate deeply with the Samoan people.

Filmed and edited by local legends Twayne Laumua and the team at Sleeping Giant Films, the video employs striking animation to convey the narrative of Samoa’s struggle against colonial powers in the late 19th century. It highlights the tragic events of March 1899, when the US warship Philadelphia bombarded villages on Upolu, resulting in significant suffering among the Samoan people.

In defiance of oppression, the resilience and courage of the Samoan people shine through. Samoa Mo Samoa serves as a tribute to those who valiantly defended their homeland, ensuring their sacrifices are remembered.
