Delta Sleep, renowned for their innovative sound and poignant lyrics, have unveiled the music video for the single “Figure In The Dark.”
The clip was directed by the band’s singer and guitarist, Devin Yüceil, who is an accomplished filmmaker and Emmy Award nominee. Yüceil says, “Expanding on themes from the song about escapism while facing the darkness of the world. Lane, our protagonist, is paralysed by his dissociation and unable to engage with the world around him. The anxiety reaches a boiling point, and Lane has no choice but to face his own demons.
The video was shot on a day off from tour, in the countryside of West Virginia and it involved renting a hand cranked fork lift from a local hardware store.”
Touching on the track, Yüceil says, “This one is loosely based on the film The Neverending Story. It is also about finding your place in a world where people live in silence, and are afraid to speak out for what is right.”
