On September 12th, Between the Buried and Me add another milestone in their 25 years and 10-album long trajectory. Said milestone, The Blue Nowhere, arrives via new label home, InsideOutMusic, and is led by Things We Tell Ourselves In The Dark. The track sports a Miles Skarin-directed video to bring to life its musical (and conceptual) intricacies with excellence.

Video director Miles Skarin comments:

“For ‘Things We Tell Ourselves In The Dark,’ we wanted to create the hotel from the album concept and artwork – we 3D-modeled the hotel based on the artwork and began to create shots of it at different times of day. Marigold is a theme across the record, so we have a scene where lots of marigold petals start to cover the hotel. This was quite an intense particle simulation that took 17 hours to process and render. We also added surreal elements to the video, including infinite hotel corridors and strange space sequences with the doors to the different rooms in the hotel. We’re really pleased with the final look and hope that everyone enjoys seeing the hotel come to life!”

Stream Things We Tell Ourselves In The Dark and pre-order the record now.
