Drown This City release new music video for ‘Carbon14’

DROWN THIS CITY have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Carbon14, is taken from the Australian metalcore band’s brand new EP, Colours We Won’t Know, which was released on Friday.

The new song was written lyrically by bassist/vocalist Toby Thomas, who shares that the track is a comparison between carbon isotope (or, Carbon 14) and himself – where the former is an atom known for being in a constant state of decay, Thomas describes how he has often felt this way in relation to his mental health journey.

“The lyrics are a personal expression of the inner turmoil I have felt between the fight for positivity while also not believing it is something my atomic structure would ever allow me to experience,” he says. “The story is told from the perspective of a man who has spent years working at his mental health only to feel a sense of failure and constant short comings. It describes the mental turmoil the character is experiencing whilst trying to stay on track to better himself instead of giving in to his demons and settling into the comfort of a darker state of mind.”
