Singer Ethan Sak Releases New Single With Powerful Message “Live Another Day” to Increase Suicide Awareness

“Live Another Day” was released late October under “The Color of Music,” and has amassed over 50,000 streams in the first few weeks of release. Today marks the official world premiere of the accompanying music video. The adult contemporary/pop piano ballad is rounded out by a string quintet and other midi orchestral elements. It can be best described as the story of a girl who could have been saved but wasn’t, due to the lack of acknowledgement to her cries for help. The song itself is about someone who is too far gone; the hope for any listener that can relate is to serve as a reminder that people do care and they are not alone in their thoughts. This song will also help bystanders identify a cry for help and potentially be a lifeline for someone in need.

ATLAS CLOSE THEIR SINGLE TRILOGY WITH NEW SONG AND VIDEO ‘UNI’

’Uni’ pummels the listener with violent riffs and mechanic percussions that take turns with soaring melodies and luscious soundscapes. The song explores the duality between the primitive and modern aspects of humans and culture. The music video continues the story of 2019 releases ‘Veli’ and ‘Aika’, with introspective visuals that enhance the theme of duality throughout the song. All three releases have Finnish names: ’VELI’ (brother), ’AIKA’ (time) and ’UNI’ (dream), and they tie together both lyrically and thematically. Like all ATLAS music videos ‘UNI’ is self-produced by the band from writing and shooting to VFX and editing. ‘Uni’ is the third and final part of a trilogy of songs that ATLAS will release in 2019 through Long Branch Records, a label at the cutting edge of modern metal.

TWISTED WHEEL – Release New Single: ‘Black & Blue’

Not shying away from the major issues today, the band remain as culturally relevant as ever. The latest track is a story of self-medication and depression, coupled with a tribute to the genius of American poet Sylvia Plath. After overdosing on medication, she reflected: “I blissfully succumbed to the whirling blackness that I honestly believed was eternal oblivion”; the same eternal oblivion which has left a seemingly irreparable scar on the lives of young people today who continue their lives under a melancholic sky of darkness and uncertainty. The willingness to reflect upon the issues that universally affect young people including suicide and mental illness through the medium of art is something that the band feel is important to get people talking and inspire those who feel they have nothing left to give.
