Holy Wars release new music video for ‘TENSION//RELEASE’

HOLY WARS have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track TENSION//RELEASE, is taken from the Los Angeles-based genre-bending duo’s latest EP, Cult Classic, which was released back in November.

Speaking about the song, vocalist Kat Leon says, “this song is a special one to me. I wanted to close the EP with a slower feel to add some weight and depth to this wild ride of Cult Classic. TENSION//RELEASE brings it back to the beginning of our band when I wrote about grief and life after the death of my parents. It is a representation of where I am now and how grief never goes away but transforms. Mine has been the source of my momentum, keeping me running on a hamster wheel to distract from looking at this void. It puts a spotlight on the push and pull of depression and anxiety. Sonically this song came together pretty fast, the vocal recordings were from the first day we wrote it. There was a rawness to it that we felt we could never match if we were to re-record it, so we kept it honest and raw.”
