Melbourne’s The Last Martyr have today released a video for, “Into the Black.” Their debut single was mixed and mastered by Circles’ Ted Furuhashi and video was directed by Dave Hunter of Band Factory Media.
The video depicts vocalist, Monica Strut, alone in a white room slowly being engulfed by black ink. Meanwhile in contrast, the full band gives a blistering performance in a dark space.
Vocalist Monica Strut explains, “On the surface ‘Into The Black’ is about a destructive and co-dependent relationship. But the overall message is that through your toughest times come your greatest life lessons. Sometimes we need to embrace our darkest moments because without them we wouldn’t be able to appreciate the light or become the person we were meant to be.”
Featuring members of Burn Halo (USA), and local bands Renegade Armada and Vanity Riots, The Last Martyr have been silently working away for the past 6 months and will be releasing their debut EP before the year is out.
