Metal quintet October Ends have announced their signing to UNFD. Alongside the announcement they have released a video for new single and UNFD debut Play Time.
Speaking of their partnership with the label, guitarist/vocalist Michael Charlton says: “We’re buzzing to start releasing new music with UNFD. We’ve been sitting on exciting material that takes October Ends in a new direction and includes the best songs we’ve ever written.”
Co-lead singer Nick Thurl Mavromatis says of Play Time: “This track is one of our favourites, and sees us experimenting and expanding our sound palette. It’s quite dark subject matter, but we really wanted to explore and exaggerate these themes as many of us in October Ends have struggled with mental health, especially during the pandemic. Sometimes you feel like there’s just no way out. Sometimes it feels like you should just give in to your dark side. In a tongue in cheek fashion, we suggest partying with your demons, giving up and joining them, facing them another day. A lot of people suffer out there, and it’s not easy to face your demons.”
The video was directed by Thurl Mavromatis and can be seen below!
