The Room release new music video for ‘Broken’

THE ROOM have released a new music video!

The new music video, titled Broken, is taken from the band’s upcoming new album, Caught By The Machine, which is scheduled to be released in February next year.

The new album will mark the band’s label debut at their new home at White Star Records. Speaking about signing the band, White Star Records‘ Chris Hillman says, “I’d been aware of THE ROOM for some time and became very impressed with their musicianship, however the thing that really won me over was this huge step up in their melodic, anthemic quality. It feels like THE ROOM are growing and developing with every album, and I find many of their melodies going around in my head after listening – real “ear worms” that I think will resonate with a large audience. Get ready for some quality prog with sticky, memorable moments!”

Speaking about the new track, vocalist Martin Wilson says, “I had to think long and hard about how Broken was to be approached. I’d always wanted to play with the idea that most problems people have are brought on by themselves; Wrong life decisions, bad investments, excessive drink and drugs abuse, mistreatment of others and so on. Often, I have found that people in these positions are the first to complain, but the last to admit fault. With Broken, the instrumental backdrop is uplifting, with this jaunty feel to it, but I wanted to find something different – a juxtaposition, if you like – to the lyrics, adding a little more intrigue to the song. So we’ve got this upbeat instrumental backing, while the lyrics offer a slightly darker picture. Spiralling out of control because of one’s own actions, how life can crash over negativity you’ve brought on yourself and so on…and yet you still complain and pass blame.”
