Locked In A Vacancy Unveil Lyric Video for “The Burden of Being”
Locked In A Vacancy, a staple in the NYC metalcore scene, reveals a lyric video for their latest single, “The Burden of Being.”
Locked In A Vacancy, a staple in the metalcore scene from NYC’s late ’90s/early ’00s, has resurfaced to introduce their forthcoming EP, …Before the Dawn. Celebrated for bridging metal and hardcore during their pinnacle, Locked In A Vacancy now reveals a lyric video for their latest single, “The Burden of Being.”
While they once shared the limelight with powerhouses such as Lamb of God, Biohazard, Converge, and Glassjaw, their journey post-2007 involved confronting challenges, including the profound loss of their drummer, Rick Cimato. Their newly released lyric video for “The Burden of Being,” a standout track from the impending EP, radiates both their enduring spirit and profound growth.
When it comes to the song itself, “The Burden of Being,” presents a raw dive into the human condition, reflecting the challenges of inertia, missed opportunities, and the societal upheaval brought about by recent global events. The lyrics, resonating with sentiments like “I am not alone in this!”, mirror the existential challenges many face today. As the lead single heralding the upcoming EP, “…Before The Dawn,” this track encapsulates the essence of Locked in a Vacancy’s renaissance, beckoning both longtime fans and newcomers to experience the fervour and authenticity of a band attuned to life’s intricate tapestry.
The group’s frontman, Dyami Bryant, comments:
“I can’t write lyrics about things I don’t find crucial to share with an audience. It’s about having something meaningful to scream.”
Crafted meticulously at the renowned Landmine Studios in Ewing, New Jersey, “…Before the Dawn” will grace the scene on December 1st under Fuzz Therapy Records. Given the fervent anticipation enveloping Locked In A Vacancy’s revival, the EP is poised to be a monumental hit, reconnecting with loyal fans and captivating new ones.
