Colour of Spring “Snow”
Leeds dreamers Colour Of Spring revealed a music video for their latest single "Snow" released on September 23rd via Swirly Records.
While enchantment of the tune and vocals tends to make the mind float away right till a burst of sound finishing the song, the video, on the contrary, helps to focus on intensity of riffs and meaning behind the words which it frames perfectly.
The band's guitarist Robin Deione, who runs his own photography company 83Photography and shot all the band’s videos so far, talks about an idea behind his newest work: "The song 'Snow' is quite a personal one to front man Shane, so I wanted to make the main focus of the video about him. I had the idea of trying to make it like a dream going on in his head. The close-ups of his face are him talking to and rationalising with himself, while the shots of the forest and him falling are meant to symbolise the idea of being lost or unsure of his emotions.”
"'Snow' is mainly about inner conflict. About self analysing your short comings and bad habits while wanting to change them for someone you care for. ‘Snow’ is the experience of knowing somebody who eventually disappears from your life over time,” - Shane explains the meaning behind the track.
Robin continues about implementing the symbolism of “Snow” in the video: “At the time of filming Shane felt quite self-conscious about the idea but after seeing it was pleased that it portrayed the same feelings visually as he was trying to express musically."
“Snow” was produced by Alex Greaves of Peak Studios who worked with Colour of Spring on their last two singles as well as with The Orielles, TRASH, NARCS, Allusondrugs, Fighting Caravans, etc. The track is out now on Swirly Records and available online and in a cassette format with exclusive B-Sides.
