FALLING IN REVERSE Release Video for New Single ‘Losing My Life’
Falling In Reverse follow their previous single Losing My Mind with the sequel, Losing My Life.
Dark, futuristic visuals capture the mood created in the latest single shared by Falling In Reverse, the intense Losing My Life.
The drama is created right from the start, as urgent choral harmonies bring a sense of impending doom, and the sense of foreboding is added to by the tense drumming and suspenseful guitars. The music takes a left turn as we enter the verse, where the listener is treated to Ronnie Radke’s skilful rapping whilst electronic beats throb away in the background. A highly charged chorus will leave you reeling from it’s impactful lyrics, as we are left with the question “Who do I believe when everyone / Feels so insincere?”.
A dynamic and futuristic video accompanies the single, featuring performances from the band as lasers beam out from headpieces and from behind the band. The video is intense in every aspect, from the storyline to the production, and it’s a visual masterpiece. Ronnie Radke says:
‘Losing My Life’ is the continuation of where ‘Losing My Mind’ ended. [It’s] the dichotomies and ironic parallels between self-reflection and the self-destructive nature that we as humans face on a daily basis in modern times. Whether it be constant judgements from our peers, not being good enough, to not knowing who to trust, I’ve come to the realization that we are all the same at our core. Yet, ironically, we project our fears in the form of hate onto each other.
Bouncing between dimensions, as the video portrays, there are two of me that are polar opposites of each other: one trying to prove to the world he is good enough, and the other trying to stop him from it. He ultimately kills his ‘reflection’ — the mirrored entity negating his progress by inter-dimensional time travel— only to find that the other version of ‘him’ he kills comes back to life, regenerating the feelings again. It’s my analogy of the cyclical battle we all face on a day to day basis. However, this underlying message can be translated in many different ways. It’s all in the eyes and ears of the beholder.
