Arliston reveal video for new single ‘Loud’

Arliston have revealed a stop-motion animated video for their new self-produced track ‘Loud’. The style has been described by The 405 as “Ray Harryhausen meets Robot Chicken” who also said “the mixture of serene landscapes and stop-motion monsters is tons of fun and demonstrates the trio’s charismatic charm.”

The idea of feeling guilty for not being “loud” was in mind when writing the new track, Ratcliffe reveals, “lyrically, the song is about that tinge of regret that any introvert worth their salt will feel from time to time. “Looking back, I could have been bolder, looking back I guess I could have been loud”. Thinking of a thousand moments where you should have said something, but didn’t.”

Arliston first began writing in a windowless basement underneath a main road in early 2017, with only the muffled screeching of Whitechapel traffic to soundtrack their creativity. This, combined with working with producer and engineer Chris Blakey (Death In Vegas, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds), “definitely made us look at the music differently”, front-man Jack Ratcliffe explains, “as a retreat from the rushing traffic, rather than an expression of some perfect rural setting”.

“Loud” is the first new music from the band since their EP “Hawser” that was released in October 2018. The EP was mastered by Anthony Lim (Kero Kero Bonito, Akala) 

Arliston consists of George Hasbury (Keys, Guitar, Bass & Backing Vocals), Jordi Bosch (Drums, Synth & Backing Vocals) and Jack Ratcliffe (Guitar & Lead Vocals).
