With the release of their most recent song, “Balaclava Kiss,” Vision Video has undergone a dramatic transition in sound, fusing raw, intense energy with gothic elegance. This brand-new song is a melancholic preview for their next album, capturing the spirit of goth rock with its intense tempo and haunting melody.
The song “Balaclava Kiss” is inspired by current social battles; Dusty Gannon, the lead singer, uses the idea of a protestor wearing a balaclava to represent resistance against problems like social unrest and monitoring. This song’s potent imagery gives it more intensity and connects it to a larger activist spirit, making it a fitting anthem for anybody standing up to the current quo.
The song’s production demonstrates the band’s dedication to high-quality audio. “Balaclava Kiss,” which was painstakingly mixed and processed by Josh Evans and Rachel Field, was recorded at La Finca Studios in Guatemala and has a deep, enveloping sound. The careful construction of every component demonstrates Vision Video’s commitment to providing a spotless and captivating audio experience.
Vision Video, who is well-known for their intense live shows, brings that same intensity to the recording of “Balaclava Kiss.” A complex audio experience is produced by the dynamic symbiosis of Emily Fredock’s evocative keyboards and Gannon’s passionate vocals. The tune gains depth in terms of emotional and thematic effect due to Gannon’s experiences as a soldier and fireman, which give it a distinct authenticity and drive.
Vision Video’s goal is still to make music that inspires change in the real world and strikes a personal chord with listeners as they prepare for the release of their album. “Balaclava Kiss” is a powerful and motivating addition to their catalogue, perfectly combining a call to action with a deep contemplative quality. It is the perfect example of their objective.
