Sleep Theory‘s “Gravity” music video has landed online in tandem with the release of their debut album “Afterglow” which also just emerged via Epitaph Records. Orie McGinness (Bad Omens, Spiritbox) took on directing this clip for the alternative rock band.
Vocalist Cullen Moore weighed in on the song:
“‘Gravity‘ is really just a classic R&B story— it’s about that real chemistry you sometimes feel with someone, even when the timing’s not perfect. I wanted it to feel confident, a little flirty, and very 2000s — something that could’ve played in the background of a scene in a throwback movie.”
‘Gravity‘ actually came together back in 2021, before we even knew we were going to do a full album. I wasn’t thinking in terms of a big project yet — I was just writing whatever felt good at the time. A big inspiration was the song ‘No Guidance‘ by Chris Brown and Drake. It had this smooth, confident energy that really stuck with me.
I wanted ‘Gravity‘ to have a similar vibe — something that feels cool and effortless but still has emotion behind it. Even visually, I was thinking of that same kind of late night, moody feel.”
