“This video tries to tell a story from the photograph in which the song is about.” says lead vocalist & bassist Stephanie Wlosinski. “The photo contains an image of an apocalyptic time which is the result of an ongoing war. As the story unfolds, the aftermath of the destruction becomes more and more apparent. We felt this song was a great song to tell a story based on something as simple as a photograph. By looking at it, you have to wonder what happened in the background? How did everything die? Why is this person smiling with nothing to smile about?” Guitarist Mike Bress continues, “This is our first concept video. We dipped our toes into something a bit different in that none of the band members are in the video. We try to tell the story with short cut scenes of how life would exist after everything is destroyed. By doing this, we are trying to convey that foolish wars will eventually bring on a world where a once lush earth becomes a desolate wasteland as a result. Living will be almost impossible.”
Our Darkest Night is the poignant new single by Hearts & Hand Grenades that delves deep into the emotional landscape of war and its aftermath. With profound lyricism and evocative melodies, the band paints a vivid portrait of the hidden complexities behind the catalyst for the song. Through soul-stirring lyrics and powerful instrumentation, the song captures the profound sense of isolation and despair that can accompany post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other mental health challenges faced by those who have served. Yet, amidst the darkness, there is a glimmer of resilience and hope. The band underscores the importance of acknowledging and addressing the emotional wounds inflicted by war, while also celebrating the indomitable spirit of those who persevere despite their pain. “Our Darkest Night” serves as a stark reminder that heroes, too, are vulnerable and in need of compassion and support as they navigate the complexities of their inner battles. With “Our Darkest Night,” Hearts & Hand Grenades delivers a powerful and deeply moving musical testament to the enduring human cost of war, offering a tribute to the courage and resilience of those who bear its scars.
