Exploring Birdsong release new music video for ‘The Collapse’

EXPLORING BIRDSONG have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track The Collapse, is the brand new single from the alt-pop/prog trio and follows on from their cover of DEFTONES‘ Diamond Eyes, which was released in November last year.

Speaking about the new single, the band says, “although in a very different style, The Collapse was originally written way back in 2017 during our time at university. Used as part of our songwriting course, we submitted it almost as a throwaway song, and as a result, didn’t resurface again until mid 2023. When we went back and re-listened, time had given us fresh ears, and allowed us to rework and really bring out the potential in what is now a song we’re super proud of. The song used to be centred around just piano and a solo vocal. For it to have blossomed into something so wildly differing in texture is really, really cool for us.

It fits nicely into what feels like a transitional period for us as a band. Whilst we work on material for our debut full-length, we also want to give time and attention to songs that we’ve either reworked or written in past, that otherwise wouldn’t have a home because they don’t quite fit the mould of the direction we’re heading in. The Collapse is one of those songs – it’s nice to give it it’s own piece of the limelight.”
