Perpetua release new music video for ‘Resolve’

PERPETUA have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Resolve, is taken from the Scottish groove metal band’s debut album, Resurgence, which was released on Friday.

Speaking about the new song and its accompanying music video, the band says, “this track speaks about the pressures and challenges we face in our darkest times, whilst delivering an ounce of hope as the song breaks through into the chorus/bridge sections. The song itself is a favourite of ours, as musically and technically it ticks all the boxes. It also has some light to shine through on a very dark album, and we believed this would be a great single for that very reason.

The video for Resolve is meant to show the intricacies of self reflection by using the effect of double exposure, seeing yourself within yourself. In a sense it is a visual exploration of knowing how the pieces fit while we are at odds with ourselves trying to move forward from the times before. The broken pieces of us are on display.”

Speaking about the release of their debut album, the band says, “this album is the culmination of all our efforts to create something special. It’s a fresh take on classic metal formulas with a modern twist. We felt that the aggressiveness and depth of the songs really stood out how we imagined. The layered choruses, the fast technical guitars, and the ferocious groove all blended together perfectly. We strived for a more technical and melodic approach in contrast to our previous work. The song structures are now more in-depth and progressively changing. Like the lyrical content, we feel the instrumental aspect of the song itself is very dark and moving.

We were heavily focused on creating a combination of blistering fast riffs, death metal vocals and soaring chorus hooks. We wanted to write an album as technical and aggressively heavy as we could, and we feel that we reached that. We spent a lot of time digging into song structures, rearranging and making sure we were content with the final outcome of every song. We knew how important our first full-length album was and for that reason it had to be perfect. We hope you enjoy it and thanks for your support.”

Resurgence is out now via Seek & Strike.
