Birmingham, UK’s Oceans Ate Alaska have released the music video for their new song, “Escapist,” taken from their forthcoming sophomore album, Hikari, set to release July 28th. Watch the video now below.
Last Friday, the band announced details for Hikari, which follows a lyrical and musical theme rooted in Samurai mythology. The 11-track album blends traditional Japanese instruments with Oceans Ate Alaska’s dynamic flare and illuminates major strides in the group’s sonic vocabulary with numerous Japanese instruments used during the recording process.
