    Mad Kelly Drops New Single, “Hostage”

    By Dom VigilApril 15, 2022
    Mad Kelly Hostage

    Mad Kelly is bringing back early ‘00s rock vibes with his newest single and accompanying video, “Hostage,” out today. Infused with nu-metal elements, the track is an explosive trip with blood-rushing riffs and dark, broody lyrics that addresses the restless feeling of being shackled by your own wrong decisions despite wanting to do what’s right.

    The track also arrives with an official video directed by Abraham Rasmussen (Lost Noise) which captures Mad Kelly through a fish-eye lens, trapped in a hauntingly minimalistic space as he loses his sanity while wrestling with his inescapable surroundings. Watch it now below.

    “The song talks about the discomfort of keeping yourself captive when you know your freedom is within reach, not being able to be who you want, and always doing what is wrong no matter how hard you try to do right – whether it be relationships, addiction or religion,” shares Mad Kelly. “I heard parts of the guitars and knew immediately which direction I had to take them. I was very inspired by early 2000s alternative rock and nu metal, so I wanted to bring in both genres as well as keeping it modern without losing the feeling of nostalgia. A new, but familiar sense of nostalgia is what I strive for the most when creating music and I’m happy with how this song came together.”
