Blood Youth release new music video for ‘Iron Lung’

BLOOD YOUTH have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Iron Lung, is the brand new single from the band and is their first new music since the release of 2019’s Playing The Victim.

Speaking about the new song and its accompanying music video, vocalist Kaya Tarsus says, “we wrote Iron Lung just before the impacts of the pandemic swept across the globe, and looking back it couldn’t have been more fitting if we tried. The song centres around having someone or something to get us through each day; ‘Will you breathe for me? Will you bleed for me?’ We all have our own shit going on in life, and at the end of the day you’re the only person that can help yourself through it. In the video, we see this masked figure, living in his own hell and doing what he can to survive. He creates something to worship and hold on to through the darkest times.”

Alongside the release of the new music video, the band have announced an extensive headlining UK tour for September this year. Support for the tour comes from DEATH BLOOMS and tickets are on sale from Wednesday June 30th from 10am and can be purchased here.

Speaking about the tour, guitarist Chris Pritchard says, “we’ve always wanted to do a tour like this where it’s just stripped down, up close and personal with no bullshit in between. Whenever we’ve tried to do something like this in the past, other tours and opportunities have gotten in the way but this time it’s happening. It feels more perfect than ever to have this be our first tour back after being away from fans for nearly two years now, to bring them back and closer than ever straight out the gate. We’re super excited to hit these towns and cities, most for the first time ever, with new songs, new visuals and a new skin – we can’t wait to share that experience with you all.”
