Leprous have released a video for their new single Alleviate.
The track follows Below from their upcoming studio album Pitfalls, which will launch on October 25 through InsideOut Music, with the video directed by Troll Toftenes of Vardøger Story Agency.
Leprous vocalist and keyboardist Einar Solberg says: “Alleviate is a very important song to me. It carries hope within the melancholy. Not only is it one of, if not the most accessible tune we've ever done, but it also carries a deeper message.
“No doubt it for some will be a controversial track considering where Leprous started, but that's what Leprous is all about: Moving forward!
“Also, we couldn't be happier about the amazing piece of visual art done by the extremely talented video director Troll Toftenes.”
Pitfalls is the follow-up to 2017’s Malina and was recorded with producer David Castillo and mixed by Adam Noble at Ghostward Studios, while the cover art was painted by Indonesian artist Elicia Edijanto.
Leprous will head out on tour in support of Pitfalls with The Ocean and Port Noir from November.
