Watch the Music Video Below!
Iranian thall/deathcore act Redvi doubles down on nihilistic views in its new song “Ashes To Gashes” along with its music video. The up-and-coming band seamlessly mixes dissonant heavy riffs with melodic piano lines with extremely atmospheric guitar leads. The song captures the duality of beauty and ugliness within the concept of hope.

Opening with a melancholic piano line “Ashes To Gashes” soon after drives straight into action with dissonant and heavy thall riffs creating a suffocating feeling. The whole production masterfully creates that uneasy almost uncomfortable feeling in the pit of one’s stomach when something is wrong. Even the melodic chorus doesn’t stray far from this ominous atmosphere that the song propagates. It merely acts as a contrasting force within the same atmosphere. Knowing that “Ashes To Gashes” is about hope reveals why the song sounds the way that it does. Hope is a double edged sword, it can propel people towards greatness and also drown them in misery when it doesn’t pay off. Redvi’s overall message is that hope doesn’t necessarily lead to happiness and success and often-times when the rush of hope disappears, there is nothing left but ruin. It perfectly parallels the band’s origin. Any Iranian will tell you how the feeling of hopes and dreams being crushed constantly feels like. In essence, Redvi managed to bring the dark side of hope to life with its punishing new single “Ashes To Gashes”. Redvi also moves past that realization into defiance against the concept of hope. Repeated refrains of refusal (“Not AGAIN”, “NO more lies”) transform the lyrics into an act of final severance: not just rage, but a hard-earned insistence on self-preservation.
Redvi’s vocalist Aryan Mohammadi had this to add about “Ashes to Gashes”:
“I tried to capture a specific process in my mind with this song. We fight with hopelessness everyday. It’s a constant battle that drains us to the bone. At the end of the day when we fail and we’ve given up, we realize that we’ve just been fighting with ourselves and have become the symbol of that same hopelessness.”
The music video courtesy of Erfan Zirak and Sajjad Karimrad showcases the song’s concept perfectly. Themes of suffering and defiance thereafter prevail in the music video with the white evil figure symbolizing the concept of suffocating hope.
