Rising York metalcorers InVisions reveal new single and video Too Far Gone today, featuring live footage from their tours alongside Our Hollow, Our Home and Glamour Of The Kill earlier this year.
“Too far gone is a shout out to everyone dealing with their own demons”, explains guitarist Lucas Gabb, “it’s a reminder that we’re all a little bent outta shape in some way, and to embrace that darkness and make it your strength. I think everyone loves getting a little twisted and sometimes you’ve gotta spend less time worrying about everyone else’s opinions, switch off and cut loose!”
Vocalist Ben Ville continues, “We wanted to do something we haven’t done before, so creating a video of our live show seemed like the right move. Having worked with LifeIsArt for our past three videos we knew they would absolutely nail it so we had them coming out to a bunch of shows and getting beaten around in the pit! It’s a song with a party vibe so the best way to portray it was to get into the thick of it. If you didn’t have a reason to see us live, now you do…”
Too Far Gone follows InVisions huge previous single, Good For Nothing. Both feature on the band’s forthcoming second album, Between You & Me due 8th February 2019 on Stay Sick Recordings. You can pre-order the physical record from InVisions or Stay Sick Recordings, or digitally from iTunes.
Speaking of their recent signing to Stay Sick, guitarist Lucas Gabb says “We were all at work, just a normal day when we got a message from our manager saying that Mike & Fronz (Attila / Co-Owner) were listening to the new record. Pretty much straight away he showed interest and said he’d be in touch with a formal offer to join the label, which was mad! Mike has a badass history in the music industry and Fronz is G so we’re definitely really hyped to get on board with them for the new record!”
Spawned into being in 2016 from the ashes of former local bands in their hometown of York, England. InVisions are contagious, NSFW and blistering. Drawing from a plethora of influences – the adrenaline and aggression in metalcore, combined with intricate guitar work inspired by 80s thrash, with the no-fucks-given attitude of modern rap – it’s all tied together with the schizophrenic vocals of Ben Ville leading at the helm, ranging from guttural growls, to biting and demonic squeals, and moments of relief in his emotive singing.
Diving headfirst into their debut self-released album Never Nothing in August 2017, which was recorded at Innersound Studios with Sam and Joe Graves (Asking Alexandria, Eyes Set To Kill, Deaf Havana), InVisions garnered support from the likes of Rock Sound, Kerrang! Radio and Metal Hammer. This fuelled a hefty touring schedule, with highlights including Download Festival and support to Slaves (US), Our Hollow, Our Home and Glamour Of The Kill.
InVisions returned to Innersound Studios to record their most ambitious and loudest work to date, forthcoming second album Between You & Me. Guitarist Alex Scott explains “Between You & Me’ is a phrase everyone has said at some point when confiding in another person or divulging personal information. It’s the lead in to a confession, an off-the-record statement. It wholly sums up the themes that this album explores and the way in which it portrays them”
