Blue October have released a video for their track Coal Makes Diamonds.
The song originally featured on the band’s 2016 record Home – their eighth studio album and follow-up to 2013’s Sway.
Speaking about the differences between both releases, vocalist and guitarist Justin Furstenfeld said: “Sway was about finding inner peace and learning to live in a healthy way.
“Home is about what we do with our time on Earth, how we’re going to utilise that time in a positive way and make it the best we possibly can by bettering ourselves.”
Blue October have released the video to coincide with their upcoming English and German tour, which is due to get underway at Birmingham’s O2 Institute on March 1. They’ll then head back across the Atlantic later in the month for a run of shows across the US.
The dates in Europe were originally scheduled to take place last year, but were pushed back because of the success of Home in the US.
