| As Sirens Fall comment:
‘Smoke is about confusion. It’s about anger with God. It’s about mental illness, war, disease, famine, global warming, injustice and inequality. The unfairness of the world is continually denied by those benefitting from it, even though it is so plain to see.
The video for Smoke follows on from our previous video ‘Where You Are’. There’s not ever an explanation as to how Mikey gets to where he is up at the end of that video, but that’s pretty intentional. It’s meant to symbolise confusion and guilt. The feeling of responsibility when you put someone into a bad situation and feel like it’s your fault.
The weekend we made the videos was one of the most grueling but awesome weekends of all of our lives. We loved it so much. I think it was a solid 40 hours working but we got there in the end and we are so happy with them.” |
