Album: Sadness Rains EP
Release Date: June 7th, 2019
Label: Innerstrength Records

Frontman Scott Cowan said of the clip:

“Lyrically, ‘Choke’ touches on the darker side of humanity. You really don’t know some people like you think you do, especially in dealing with what goes on behind closed doors. It also calls out our manipulative and selfish tendencies through our interactions with others and the world around us, even to the point where we intentionally cause pain and hatred in order to twist things to our advantage.”

Guitarist Joseph Benham describes the song’s musical element, stating:

“Sonically we wanted to mirror the sentiment described in the lyrics, keeping the overall tone dark and bleak with hints of desperation at the hands of unbridled power.”
