Metal Corner: Texas in July’s ’1000 Lies’ is About Hope [Music Video]
Call it ironic, but the dudes of Texas in July didn’t form in Texas. Regardless of that technicality, the Ephrata, Pn., guys rock extremely hard, and that’s what really matters, right? Check out their just-released video for, “1000 Lies,” here.
“1000 Lies” comes off Texas In July’s sophomore album, One Reality, which dropped in April. Taped in the band’s hometown and co-directed by Rasa Acharya and Gaura Vani, the video stars artist and actress Dessie Jackson.
“The message behind ‘1000 Lies’ is one that means a lot to all of us and that we can all relate to…” bassist and lyricist Ben Witkowski told Noisecreep. “We want people to walk away from the song realizing that no matter what situation you may find yourself in, no matter how deep your problems get, or how lost you may feel – there is always hope.”
Texas in July just wrapped up the 2011 Scream The Prayer, and they’ll hit the road with We Came As Romans for the I’m Alive Tour this fall.
