Australian metalcore powerhouse, Druid, continues to make waves in the heavy music scene with their latest single, ‘HANG IN THERE (IT GETS WORSE)’, which they are now pairing with a chilling and haunting music video. The track, released on May 12th, delves into the depths of mental health issues and the inner struggles that accompany them, showcasing Druid’s unyielding style and raw intensity.
Now, Druid unveils the haunting and suffocating music video for ‘HANG IN THERE (IT GETS WORSE)’. Produced by Crow Rivers Visuals, the video perfectly captures the essence of the track’s dark themes as the band performs amidst an ominous warehouse backdrop. The visuals intensify the emotional impact of the song, immersing viewers in a chilling atmosphere that echoes the struggles depicted in the lyrics.
With their powerful and honest lyrics, volatile vocals, and explosive energy, ‘HANG IN THERE (IT GETS WORSE)’ serves as a reflection of co-lead vocalist Jordan Williams’ personal experiences with depression and mental health challenges. Williams’ hostile vocal delivery, paired with brutally honest lyrics, authentically convey the weight and pressure that come with such struggles. The song carries a purging, fiery feel that resonates with listeners on a visceral level.
