Australian metalcore unit Alpha Wolf and Welsh post-rockers Holding Absence have released another track from their split EP, “The Lost & The Longing“. That EP saw a release today, August 15th and finds the two outfits combining for a pair tracks, while also sporting a new individual offering from each band.
Third Eye Visuals oversaw the music video for this latest collaborative track from the effort, “60cm Of Steel“. Alpha Wolf‘s guitarist Sabian Lynch commented:
“When writing during lockdown, we wrote the instrumental for 60cm and didn’t quite know where it’d sit for us, we loved it but didn’t know how to move forward with it. That wasn’t until we had the idea of the Split EP with Holding Absence and knew this would be incredible with Lucas’ voice helping us out. This collaboration made this song one of our most powerful yet and teaming up with Holding Absence helped us convey everything we wanted when building this track.
We teamed up with Third Eye Visuals yet again for the visuals but this time approached the video with a more cinematic look rather than what we’re known for when teaming up, we love to throw curve balls occasionally.
Ben (Third Eye Visuals) really took the lyrics on board when piecing together the ideas for this music video and we love how it came together, he managed to portray our idea of the extent that artists go for their art perfectly, because often in todays world it feels as though you need to really invoke some inner demons just to create what is to be deemed as ‘successful art’.”
