Thousand Below release new music video for ‘171 xo’

THOUSAND BELOW have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track 171 xo, is taken from the post-hardcore band’s upcoming new album, Gone In Your Wake, which was released in October of last year.

“171 xo has been a personal favorite of ours since we finished recording Gone In Your Wake and it has grown into one of our favorite songs to play live,” says singer James Deberg. “We talked to some length about having this song be one of the lead singles, but we ultimately felt the other three songs we chose showcased the diversity of the album better.

This song is about the stage in a relationship that sometimes happens after you split up – where it seems things have finally ended once and for all, but you still occasionally see one another. It’s about the hopeless phase of denial that this stage ultimately becomes in which other people have come in between you and the person you love, but you both still have feelings you are trying to suppress from one another. I wanted to capture the frustration of having someone surface back into your life as only a fraction of the part of your world they used to be, and the frustration that comes from someone you love only making you a priority when other people in their life have hurt them and they wish to feel something safe again.

The Killed And Born Again tour that began this February was such an amazing experience and it was the first time we played 171 xo live. The song got such a great reaction from the crowd and has such good energy that we felt we had to do a music video for it. We filmed the music video on a day of the KABA tour before the show with some very talented friends of ours and we think it came out great.”
