New Jersey-based post-hardcore group, VANISH have joined Outerloop Records‘ growing roster of Lorna Shore, Chasing Safety, Youth in Revolt, A Wake in Providence, Megosh and more. Along with announcing their signing to the label, VANISH has partnered with New Noise Magazine to unveil the official music video for their newest single, “DEAD” which can be seen now below.
Co-written by Johnny Frack (Attack! Attack!), “DEAD” is a song about the hollowness and distance in modern relationships. It’s about watching someone you love slowly turn away from you and feeling helpless/betrayed in the situation. The track progresses through thoughts of revenge to reasoning.
The music video for “DEAD” showcases the band, giving the viewer a taste of their live show, whereas the bathroom scenes give the viewers a sense of the wrenching emotions expressed in the lyrics. The video was shot in an art studio in Brooklyn (Forgotten Works Studio) by Danard Lenoir, and edited by Ned Ingalls.
