Blind Equation has released the music video for "Flashback," the second single from their upcoming album A Funeral in Purgatory, which explores the desire to relive life’s peak moments amidst the pain of knowing they may never return. Key songwriter James McHenry, who produced the album, emphasizes a blend of brutality and emotional depth, with contributions from Texas trancecore artist Strawberry Hospital enhancing the track. The album, slated for release on July 18 via Prosthetic Records, is described as the band’s heaviest yet, featuring collaboration with artist Johnnascus.
As Blind Equation prepares for their upcoming tour and performances, it raises an interesting question: How do the themes of nostalgia and emotional struggle in music resonate with listeners, and can they provide a sense of hope amidst adversity?
