San Francisco metalcore band Swept to Sea unveil new single "Shards of Your Reflection"
San Francisco metalcore band Swept to Sea have dropped their new single "Shards of Your Reflection" today.
An accompanying music video directed by Pedro Salgado can be seen below. Guitarist Jeno Fox said this about working on the video:
"Shards made a lot of sense as our first single. The song really captured our different musical tastes in a fun haunting song that had very visual lyrics which we wanted to capture in the video. It took a lot of time to set up the sets in a way that would give the haunted house vibes any justice. In the end, we feel as though we told a really scary story and got the visuals we all thought of when writing the song. In the video you can see all the band members in tattered black clothing, and the ‘ghost’ woman who often appears in the background of the footage, and a ritual scene which ultimately led to the origin of the ghost."
Vocalist Ernest Munoz also said:
“If you zoom in close enough on my head, you will see a shard of your reflection hahaha… but yeah it was just too hot up there. At least the huge coolers in the warehouse helped cool us down. The difference in temperatures when we walked up and down the stairs felt like stepping into two different planes of existence.”
"Shards of Your Reflection" stems from Swept To Sea’s forthcoming debut EP Tides, which will be released on December 2 via Eclipse Records. Pre-orders for the EP can be made here.
