Norwegian dream pop trio Chain Wallet have premiered a music video for “Faded Fight.” The video follows the three members are they explore Norway in their own creative way. The song is off of the group’s debut full length, Chain Wallet, out October 7th.
Chain Wallet explores themes of betrayal, idleness and crushed dreams against the backdrop of an existential breakdown. The album is loosely based in the same universe and portrays different aspects of the quarter-life crisis, ensuring that the album hits on a visceral, teenage level amongst the shimmer and haze of the lo-fi soundscape that they conjure.
Frode Boris from the band explains the band’s ethos and sound: “We want to capture the acute distress of an afflicted character; his self-indulgent pity, gradual loss of touch with reality and his forlorn attempts on returning to normal life. The abrupt disintegration unveils interesting tensions between urgency and inertia. The album is about fragmented memories, unfulfilled ambitions and the quiet whisper of a stranger.”
