Swedish post-punk\/alt-metal band\u00a0Past Five<\/strong>\u00a0have revealed a new music video and single for the song “Close To The Exit<\/strong>“. The video was directed by\u00a0Gregory Cuchissi<\/strong>\u00a0and was filmed at various locations throughout the band’s hometown of Boras, Sweden.<\/strong>\u00a0While being about depression and suicide, the video shows that life is indeed worth living. Watch it right now at\u00a0this location<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Close To The Exit” is the second music video from the band’s new EP entitled\u00a0Detox.<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0which is out on\u00a0May 8, 2020<\/strong>, via Eclipse Records. The four-song release was produced by\u00a0Christian Silver<\/strong>\u00a0(Dragonforce, Arch Enemy, Kreator) at the infamous\u00a0StudioMega<\/strong>\u00a0in Varberg, Sweden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Since the song touches on such a heavy subject, we felt the video really had to reflect the message of the lyrics”\u00a0<\/em>says guitarist\u00a0Jonathan Yderhag<\/strong>. “We wanted to show the pain and struggle which could lead someone to contemplate suicide. However, at the last minute the man realizes that he has something to live for and doesn’t really want to die, he just really wants to escape his pain, and chooses to live instead.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The band previously revealed their first music video off the EP, for the first single “Kryptonite”. Watch it right now at\u00a0this location<\/a>.
