Perhaps it will have been a bit too on-the-nose, however there are not any moths within the new video for the monitor “Like Moths,” from Wisconsin post-black metallic quartet Corridoré. There are are nevertheless plenty of close-up scenes of cowboys getting thrown from bulls, intermingled with dwell photographs of the band performing in what appears to be like like a rehearsal studio. And the track’s quiet piano-based coda is an entire different vibe altogether with pictures of what appear like mannequins in a room stuffed with elaborate chandeliers. As esoteric because it all appears, the visuals—courtesy of director Jorge Torres Torres (Modest Mouse, Lamb of God, Imperial Triumphant)—do appear to suit the nine-minute monitor, which works from pensive and moody to heavy and sludgy and again to quiet and calm. The band—Eric Andraska (bass/vocals), Matt Allen (guitars/vocals), Russell Emerson Corridor (guitars/vocals), Nick Bartley (drums)—is extraordinarily proficient in constructing layers, each instrumentally and dynamically. “Like Moths” is taken from Corridoré’s upcoming full-length, Abandon.
Abandon was recorded and blended by Dustin Sisson at Blast Home Studios in Madison WI, with extra recording by guitarist/vocalist Russell Emerson Corridor. It was mastered by Carl Saff in Chicago IL, and is about for launch on vinyl, CD, cassette and digitally through Hypaethral Data on August 22.

Bassist/vocalist Eric Andraska had this to say concerning the monitor:
“I wrote the lyrics to this track fascinated about how, ‘like moths,’ we’re drawn in the direction of ‘the sunshine,’ regardless of how a lot we combat it. I used to be caught in a rut fascinated about the previous. However I ultimately got here to the conclusion that a lot of that needed to be left behind. It’s concerning the harsh dichotomy of getting to go ahead with ‘our hearts open huge,’ but additionally acknowledging that we’ve given up and it’s certainly ‘for the final time.’”
