Progressive metallers Valleys have released a music video for the track “The Death Of Me” off their impending debut full-length Experiment One: Asylum. The video/short film introduces the record’s concept, which follows the main character Asylum and his tumultuous fight with multiple-personality disorder. Guitarist Brandon Scurlark comments:
“This track acts like a prequel to the entire story of this record, which is pretty ironic since this is the last song on the album. The instrumentals follow the rise and fall of Asylum throughout the track. The more melodic parts represent the ups and the good times, where the heavier chaotic parts and as well as the breakdown represent the fall of Asylum and his succumbing to the disease.”
Frontman Jayson Mitchell adds:
“We focused the video around the Asylum family and kept the camera away from us in the band. With us staying in the background, it gave the image of us being the different personalities, waiting to take over almost like a foreshadowing or a dream.”
The video was filmed by Jaiden Frost of Jaiden Frost Presents and can be seen below:
“The Death Of Me” and lead single “Finding Solace” are available as digital singles on Bandcamp and iTunes.
