Malevolence have released a video for Higher Place, a track from their latest album Malicious Intent.
“Higher Place focuses on a subject which everyone will deal with at some point in loss; death/bereavement,” explains frontman Alex Taylor. “This is one most heartfelt songs we have written as a band, however once we began writing this song, it came together very naturally. This song is a huge step outside our comfort zone, we hope you enjoy it! The visuals for this song was our first venture into a narrative driven video, filmed in our hometown of Sheffield. We worked closely with Enon Films to bring the concept to life.”
“The song inspired sorrow, drama, and a dark epicness, which is what guided us in the making of this video,” adds video director Gabriel Fernández-Gil. “In the story you’ll be able to identify themes of loss, revenge, and UK’s knife-crime epidemic. As the lyrics and instrumentation, our characters “ascend” to different metaphorical planes of existence, or lack thereof.”
Malevolence have also released an acoustic version of Higher Place – check it out HERE.
