Black Water County release new music video for ‘Cruel State Of Mind’

BLACK WATER COUNTY have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Cruel State Of Mind, is the brand new single from the South West folk punk band and gives a glimpse into their upcoming new album, The Only Life Worth Living. More information on the new album will be unveiled in due course.

Speaking about the new single, vocalist Shan Borovnicke Byrom says, Cruel State Of Mind is our own familiar love song for the ages, full to the brim of agonised imagery – ‘like the deaf leading the blind’ and ‘full-circle, like Sisyphus’ stone’, we wanted to hammer home the feeling of thoughts going round and round your head with no respite. The song hits its climax with a passionate U-turn. ‘Something’s got to give’ – can we ever escape our own vicious cycles? ‘I’ll leave it all behind unless it leads me back to you’ – ultimately ends up where we started in the hold out for love’s return.

Despite the recent dystopian environment the human race has had to endure with the undoing of habits and the re-writing of thought patterns, there are some things that will never NOT be tangled up in the human experience. This exasperated love song serves us all; past, present and future.”
