Progressive metalcore quartet Invent Animate have unveiled a music video for their latest single, “Elysium“, Diving into the lyrical inspiration behind the track, the band’s vocalist Marcus Vik commented:
“When my grandfather got sick, I was a 15-year-old boy with no emotional grip on my world. We were close, but his sickness was something I didn’t see. It might’ve been because I didn’t want to see it or that I was too scared. When he passed, I didn’t comprehend the mourning, I didn’t feel it, and that made me feel shame. It took me 12 years to wake up one day and embrace it, and it hit me like a wave of odd emotions that I’ve never felt before. Grief is upon me and this is the story of me looking back, searching my inner self and looking forward.”
The Texan outfit have been working on a fourth studio album as of late with plans for a release next year through UNFD.
