Unholy Orpheus is an Ankimo sub-unit, the only member missing per say is Fuki, though she provides guest vocals for one track on the album. This death metal style album that the song comes from, "what is DEATH?" was originally conceived as a contrasting companion piece to their last album Evolution, which had no growls and is less overtly heavy sounding overall than prior releases. It's also a bit of a passion project for Shiren (band co-founder doing the growls).
They were planning on releasing both albums in the same year, but being independent I think they eventually decided that it didn't make financial sense, so they only posted a single MV for "want to LIVE" under the label 'Shiren from Unlucky Morpheus' and spent extra time working on the material. Fuki pulling double duties with Doll$boxx this year probably ties in quite nicely from a promotional perspective. They will actually be performing as their own opening act for all shows on the Unlucky Morpheus 15th anniversary tour.
Not sure where Neon got multiple members missing from, though there's the other sub-unit Quadratum, which is an instrumental four piece variant without Fuki or Shiren.
The other male members whose names you don't know/remember are Jinya (babyfaced guitarist, ex-Undead Corporation), Ogawa Hiroyuki (bassist, previously in a jazz fusion trio called Trick Box, with Mikio Fujioka of the Kami Band) and Fumiya (drummer, ex-Galneryus).
Think the dancer is supposed to be either someone possessed/going insane and/or a transient of some description. The lyrics seem to touch on insanity/possession with a bit of a Lovecraftian slant and the 'undeveloped land' allegory seems to mean a blank/unsullied mind ripe for corruption/exploitation. At least that's the impression I get initially from reading them.

I think the dancer is actually the janitor of the building being drunk. He just refused to go away, so they included him in the video.

"TRAUMATA" is the only song that Fuki participated in as a featured vocalist. I hope they will release the MV because it’s a typical dark, aggressive, and fast Unlucky Morpheus song. I saw them perform it in March. I’m going to see them again this weekend. I can’t wait!🤘

i got 7SPires vibe (+ mic stand) out of it

Just clicked on this, and the way Howard likes metal growls, I predict this is not going to end well.
*edit (after the video)*
Well that didn't go as badly as I though, apart from me not really wanting to know about your Unholy Orifice ^_^
