Make Them Suffer release new music video for ‘Contraband’

MAKE THEM SUFFER have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Contraband, is the brand new single from the Australian metallers and is their first new music since the release of 2020’s How To Survive A Funeral. The new features a guest appearance from SPIRITBOX‘s Courtney LaPlante and marks the first time the band have collaborated with a guest.

“Contraband came together centered around one of the riffs in the song that we’d aptly named the ‘floppy fingers’ riff,” says vocalist Sean Harmanis about the new single. “We’d actually had this [riff] in the bank since way back in 2016. As the song came together, we decided that it was a great opportunity to include MAKE THEM SUFFER‘s first-ever guest feature, and we couldn’t have picked anyone better than Courtney! She was a joy to work with and showed such a great enthusiasm toward the song and her parts.

Lyrically, the song is about everything and nothing at the same time. It’s about relationships with friends and family. But it’s also a low-key political song, as well as an expression of the frustrations surrounding COVID and its impact on our lives, particularly as members of the music community. Contraband is a build up – the result of two years without musical catharsis.”
