Haken have released an eye-catching animated video for their 2016 track Lapse.
The song originally featured on the UK outfit’s fourth studio album Affinity, which launched last year via InsideOut Music.
The band say in a statement: “Lapse was one of the first tracks we wrote for Affinity. Now, more than a year since the album’s release, it’s great to finally give this song a chance to stand out on its own as it’s one of our favourites.
“Visually, we wanted to maintain a consistency with our videos for Initiate, Earthrise and The Endless Knot, so we returned to Miles Skarin at Crystal Spotlight to complete the series.
“The video incorporates a 3D motion capture technique – previously used on Frost*’s Numbers’ video – to tie in with Affinity’s themes of artificial intelligence/consciousness.”
Haken are gearing up to head out on the road across North America. Their run of shows will get under way on August 23 in Detroit.
