Light Grey release new music video for ‘Crazy’

LIGHT GREY have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Crazy, is the brand new single from the Galway-based emo-pop-rock band and follows on from their previous single, Insomnia, which was released earlier this year.

Ciaran Nevin from the band recalls the manic undertaking he went through while bringing Crazy to life in the studio, and how the process seemed to induce the same neurotic headspace it was meant to capture. “During the recording process it just looped on and on and on in my head for weeks. I literally had to write another song just to get it out of there!”

Mikey Connolly adds, “it’s highlighting the fact that you don’t always ‘like’ the ones you love, and sometimes the people you fall for are the very same ones with a knack for driving you to the brink of madness.”

“The whole song has such a night and day vibe,” Ciaran continues. “Mikey‘s lyrics were written from the perspective of someone perpetually trying to navigate the bi-polar highs and lows of a volatile relationship. It’s the out-of-body realization that sometimes the negative traits of your partner can drive you insane, but somehow your love for them always seems to drag you back in. In the past, we’ve had a tendency to be overly-critical of our music – often to the point where we can ruin it for ourselves. We call this our Irish shame. When we started as a band it was always a struggle for us to fit in with the local scene, which made it feel impossible for us to get gigs. It seemed like we were always either ‘not poppy enough’ for the pop bands, or ‘not punk enough’ for the punk bands. But this track exemplifies not only the fact that we can do both at the same time, but that we’ve grown to do it quite well.”
