Rising London group Another Sky have shared the powerful video for their new song 'Avalanche'.
Clash caught the band at their first ever live show earlier in the year, a precocious display of potent artistry that felt very much like The Complete Package.
New single 'Avalanche' certainly underlines this opinion, and the visuals allow Another Sky to expand on their visual dynamic.
A song that deals with the impact of toxic masculinity, the video allows singer Catrin Vincent to confront these issues in a stark yet imaginative way.
She explains: "'Avalanche' speaks of the toxic masculinity that bleeds into every other form of oppression, that causes white men with badges to shoot black men without, that causes women to live their lives in fear, that causes men themselves to live in fear."
Director Alex Nicholson steers the clip, and he offers…
When I first heard the song, I was blown away. It was clearly something entirely personal to Catrin and so I wanted to create a film that showcased her and the emotional message of the song. I generally try to strip things back to its rawest form and when Catrin agreed (and was even proud) to go 'warts and all' I knew the song and the visuals would connect. Catrin and the band are new and brilliant talents, I couldn't have asked for a better performance or track to bring to life. Look out for these guys, they are going to be everywhere soon.
Tune in now.
