Greyhaven Premiere “The Welcome Party” Music Video

Greyhaven have shared an official video for their new song “The Welcome Party.” That track will appear on their new EP “Stereo Grief,” which is set to be released on April 12.

Vocalist Brent Mills said the following about the song:

“It’s a classic Greyhaven song, but I think we’ve figured out what that means and how to do that the best way possible, while still exploring new things. This is the first time I’ve tried to tackle a central concept throughout a release. This song, and the EP as a whole, really deal with framing life and death…If these songs can build a house, this is the first knock at the front door.”

He also added the following about the EP:

“The EP is a loose story of someone navigating existential fear relating to all life and all death on a grand scale through a multi-dimensional lens. I was inspired by a short story [Robert A. Heinlein’s “And He Built A Crooked House”] I read while we were tracking that sort of serves as a backdrop for what’s going on in the lyrics. Overall, I feel like this is the best material we’ve written so far and it’s only hinting at where we’re going. We couldn’t be more excited to release it with a new team behind us.

On the EP, this character is traveling through a house where he watches all of these versions of himself. He experiences good and bad moments as well as regret. I struggle with a lot of anxiety and depression. I’m always thinking, ‘I wish I could’ve done that differently.’ By looking through the lens of a person who has access to every variation of life, the project is a way to process a really depressive episode. It leads to acceptance though.”
