Shattered Sun have released the music video for the pulverizing title track of their debut album, Hope Within Hatred, which will be released tomorrow, April 21st, via Victory Records. Pre-order the album here and check out the video in the player above.
Shattered Sun vocalist Marcos Leal elaborated on the experience of shooting their first video:
Filming this video was kind of our first introduction to our new lives. From the drive to Chicago, the 6:00 a.m. wake up call, and the efforts of working non-stop for the next 14 hours, the hard work and dedication put into everything is something that’s going to shine. We want to give our fans the best video possible.
‘Hope Within Hatred’ is a song about overcoming tremendous adversity. We wanted to show people with this video that sometimes the decisions we make can dig us so far down, that it would be easier to give up than fight to get out. But we can all break through if we want it bad enough.
