downcast release new music video for ‘your absence’

DOWNCAST have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track your absence, is taken from the Bristol-based emo-pop-punk band’s new EP, WTF HAPPENED, which was released last week, via self-release.

Speaking about the song, vocalist Liam Edwards shares,your absence conveys the range of emotions that I felt when I was grieving. It begins by reflecting on the time that I spent living with our friend Ryan, only months before he ended his life, then moves on to express the regret and frustration that I felt whilst trying to process the tragic situation. His death came at a time when we were no longer living together and I had been feeling a sense of distance between us. I spent a lot of time pondering over an alternative timeline where I had done something to change the outcome.”

Bassist Jeff Bowyer adds, “the idea of the video was to translate feelings of isolation, helplessness and the dark depths of depression we all had to crawl out of alone when experiencing the grief of our friend.”
