Video: Sad Park Drop 'DEATH' Music Video

Sad Park releases a new song called “DEATH” accompanied by a new music video. It’s taken from the bands upcoming new album ‘NO MORE SOUND’, out July 7 via Pure Noise Records and follows the songs “CAROUSEL” and “ALWAYS AROUND”.

“DEATH’ is about my struggle with coming to terms with an end,” says vocalist and guitarist Graham Steele. “I used to never think about it but now the older I get I think about the fact that I don’t think anything happens when you die. I want to live my life to the fullest and soak up every moment with the people around me. If nothing happens when I die, I want an amazing life while I’m here.”

The music video, directed by Ryan Baxley, chronicles the band’s ventures into social media trends at the advice from their “manager”, played by Erik Jimenez from Together Pangea… from make-up tutorials to planking and parkour, it eventually ends in chaos. 

‘NO MORE SOUND’ is Sad Park’s third full length and first for Pure Noise Records. The band worked with AJJ’s Sean Bonnette, who oversaw production and collaborated with Steele on the lyric writing process, helped bassist/vocalist Sam Morton, drummer Grant Bubar and guitarist Aidan Memory not only create a record that flows, musically and thematically, from beginning to end, but which also sees the four-piece truly discover and become who they are as a band.

“The theme of the album is summarized into four parts: Life, Death, Love, and Time,” says Steele. Recorded across ten days at Balboa Studios in Los Angeles, ‘NO MORE SOUND’ is the sound of a band really coming into their own. It captures their chemistry perfectly, and as much fun as the band had making the record in general, it still manages to convey the band’s distinctively peppy sense of melancholy.

While Sad Park have always tapped into the human condition with their songs, they do so even more profoundly on this record.
