CODE ORANGE have a new album, The Above, coming at the end of the month, September 29th, via Blue Grape Music, and today they’ve released a new song and video for “Mirror,” another piece of the album’s puzzle. Directed by the band’s visual/audio collective NOWHERE2RUN, the video features Reba Meyers delivering an emotional vocal performance. The video uses live action, stop motion, claymation, and rotoscoping to create a compelling juxtaposition between isolation and gorgeous, technicolour. NOWHERE2RUN consists of frontman Jami Morgan, keyboardist Eric “Shade” Balderose and cinematographer Eric Robbins. Reba notes, “this song has a special place in my heart. To me, it’s the climax of this style of my writing in this band thus far. Take a look in the mirror, are you bored?” Jami Morgan continues, “Mirror is NOWHERE2RUN’s first foray into full music video production from conception all the way to the final edit. It’s fitting that we took on a song that is dynamically disparate from anything CODE ORANGE has ever done. It’s a little softer, a little more lush, and led by a powerful performance from Reba. It’s another important piece of the puzzle that is The Above.” “Mirror” follows the song and video for “Take Shape (feat. Billy Corgan)”. WATCH the video and stream the track HERE. |
