Neshiima release new music video for ‘Caving In’

NESHIIMA have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Caving In, is taken from the band’s upcoming new EP Green which is scheduled to be released in September this year. The upcoming EP is the final instalment of a three-part series of EP releases, drawing close to a journey that began in March 2018 with the release of Purple.

“This song was a tough one to write, as the theme is suicide prevention”, explains frontman Liam Hesslewood. “The main hook outlines negative emotions that can trigger the need to take life into our own hands. The verses reflect on those that we are willing to let go, to see if they return to us or not. It’s a plea to those in need to recognise that sometimes the dark clouds aren’t permanent. There is always a better way. It addresses the fact that numbing out the world through isolation only makes the situation worse.”

The music video for the band’s latest single hosts a striking montage laced throughout its duration. Holding various hand-written messages in self-shot footage, the band’s fanbase submitted clips that convey heartwarming words of encouragement, kinship and a positive outlook on topics such as bullying, depression and self-destructive thoughts. Closing off the video, NESHIIMA offer their own uplifting message that no matter the circumstances, “broken crayons still colour”.

“With both this song and its video, we’re trying to show that we all need each other”, comment the band. “The grass may not always be greener on the other side, but you must nurture what you have and learn to grow in your own way with the support of others…and by being a support to them.”
