SONGS YOU SHOULD HEAR: I FIGHT FAIL – “HERE”
BAND: I Fight Fail
SONG: “Here”
SOUNDS LIKE: Post-hardcore for fans of Thrice, Brand New, Movements
ABOUT THE TRACK: “Here,” the haunting new single from alternative post-hardcore band I Fight Fail, has a menacing tone throughout, something the band attributes to how it was written. “We actually wrote this song in a cabin in the woods over the course of a weekend,” says drummer/guitarist Anthony Carter. “It gives you an ominous feeling that you can feel and hear throughout the song.”
Thematically, the track touches on themes of solitariness and loss. “This song is about losing something or someone you love and how it causes you to feel trapped or alone,” explains Carter. “It also can be perceived as don’t take life and the things you have for granted because it could be gone in an instant.”
Along with the single, I Fight Fail has also released a music video for the track. The video furthers the ominous theme, featuring two actors performing over washes of reds and whites. The video has imagery of a woman chased down by a man which can be looked as a personal demon or depression. “When you try to run from your problems, fears, and or pain, it will always catch up,” says Carter.
