There’s a brand new single to be experienced from Rivers Of Nihil‘s upcoming fourth studio album “The Work” today. That track is titled “Focus” and a music video for it directed by David Brodsky can be seen below.
The band’s lead guitarist/keyboardist Brody Uttley commented:
“For the ‘Focus‘ video, we once again recruited Mr. David Brodsky, Allie Woest and the team at MyGoodEye. This video tells the story of an individual in a fractured state of mind confronting the darkest parts of his inner self and battling with a physical manifestation of his deepest fears and concerns; the worst parts of himself.
This manifestation represents the presence in all of our heads that tries to pull us down into the throes of self-destructive behavior and patterns of thinking. The creature that he is interacting with becomes more apparent as the video progresses (with the main character slipping deeper into psychosis) until the end when he loses his battle and is plunged down into the blackness once and for all; existing permanently in the prison that his delusions have constructed for him…Perhaps finally at peace, or just as likely: never again at peace.”
