Brooklyn NY, post punk/psych band A Place To Bury Strangers have unveiled the video for their latest single "Love Reaches Out".
The song is taken from their new album 'See Through You', released earlier this month (February 4) via Dedstrange. Grab your copy here.
“’Love Reaches Out’ is the hope at the end of the tunnel that concludes this album,” says Oliver. “I went through such a traumatic experience writing this record and yet people were there to help me, so this song is about appreciating and thanking them.”
With its triumphant marching snare and a hooky bassline, “Love Reaches Out” concludes See Through You on a warm and fuzzy note—though not the guitar kind. No circuit can contain the electrifying joy of two souls united. “Moments like this highlight how much [Ackermann has] grown as a singer,” writes Heather Phares at AllMusic. In her review of See Through You, she praises “Love Reaches Out” as “Ackermann and company’s most empathetic song to date.”
In the music video directed by horror auteur @GabeCarrer (For The Sake Of Vicious, The Demolisher), the third in a series directed by the band’s favorite horror movie directors, a woman unexpectedly encounters and reaches out to a shapeshifting entity in the most unlikely manner. This entity befriends her after it was left for dead and gives her the support needed to help battle her own anxiety and inner demons. “It reminds us not to turn a blind eye to the small things and that friendships can manifest in the most unlikely ways,” says Carrier.
